For what it's worth, Harvard is pretty affordable - if you can get in. They instituted a new tuition plan 4 or 5 years ago where families pay annual tuition, room and board of 10% of gross earnings for those earning between $120,000 and $180,000 per year, for example.

So your friend's son received aid during his four years. To reply to your post Harvard is well-known for marking up work at least a grade and maybe more. The trust fund kids don't care, nor probably do thier parents. So if your child comes homes with an A from Harvard it has been well-documented that the A is quite likely a B or lower grade at BU for instance. Harvard is also advertised as being a $52,000.00 a year college. Every fall the highest cost schools are always ranted about on TV. So $52,000.00 a year for attending Harvard plus the grades are marked up to make it appear everyone who attends Harvard is genius level was my point, but why I said what I said in reply to Ross stated dilema was, is that spending all that money for the art school doesn't mean your getting a Picasso in return.
