A lot of the top-tier private schools are like this, it is a needs-based tuition. It works because of large endowements from all the trust-fund's parents I guess..
of course, all the state schools keep getting slashed, and are still expected to comptete... The % of aid from the State to URI for instance has declined REMARKABLY in the last 30 years, and it is supposed to be the state's flagship school...
