    Stanford, Yale, Dartmouth, Brown and Harvard all raised undergraduate tuition for the 2020-2021 academic year, even though classes are being taught largely online.* All these schools have huge endowments and other revenue streams like selling research so none are reliant on tuition; it’s just that they don’t care about students or families. They see an insatiable demand and they want to exploit it. It’s that simple.

      Any word on if the dead period will get delayed even more?

        Not all schools have the cache of those above nor an endless supply of price insensitive parents. Some are using price freezes as a marketing tool, but then they jack up other fees and slash staff and faculty. They don't have the deep pockets, don't have big endowments. All are pushing for all in-person, back to normal in the fall, which should be achievable. Some may never recover the covid financial hit

          Very unlikely. Athletes and programs all need it back to normal.

              Very few took a real financial hit. Most took PPP loans or refinanced bonds with the lower interest rates. Even the non-profit colleges that couldn’t take PPP are now included in law changes for the 2nd round. The fact is the only people hurt financially are the 30-40 million unemployed or underemployed and those who lost breadwinners to Covid. The schools will be fine; it’s the students and families, especially those in the bottom 50%, that are hurting.

                Yah totally 100% agree I wouldn't really worry about colleges or Universities during the pandemic. The big guys always come out on top. I agree it's the 75% of the bottom economic class that gets hurt. As far as colleges go they are totally fine!
