Paying for College — The Rich Are Different
Sweet! I’m bumping up the middle bar with Grants and Scholarships! I don’t think I could go to UCLA without my Fellowship. Gotta keep those grades up!
Students from the richest families have well over half of the costs of going to college paid for by their parents. Students from families earning less than $35,000 annually, on the other hand, are relatively more reliant on grants, scholarships and their own borrowing.
