Financial Aid Policies – Apples and Oranges

We all know universities come in different flavors – state schools/ivy leagues, privates/publics, colleges/universities, etc. And we know the different types have different admission standards your student needs to meet in order to get into them. We also are VERY aware of the different price tags for each. A four year in state university currently costs around $19,000 per year and a four year private college around $42,000 according to “Trends in College Pricing 2014” published by the College Board.
What you might not be fully aware of though is schools do NOT award financial aid in the same way from school to school.
