Stanford University to Eliminate Tuition for Some Students
Associated Press
PALO ALTO, Calif.--Attending Stanford University next year will be a lot more affordable for some undergraduate students.
The university
said Wednesday it plans to eliminate tuition for students with annual family incomes totaling less than $100,000. It also
will pay most room and board for students with families making less than $60,000.
Financial aid director Karen Cooper
says the move comes as middle-income parents express concern about paying for a Stanford education.
Stanford tuition
is expected to rise to $36,000 in the fall. Room and board will cost about $11,000. About a third of the university's 6,700
undergraduates are expected to qualify for the tuition break.
