Statement by NAICU President David L. Warren on the 2007 College Board Tuition and Student Aid Reports

This year's average increase in private-college tuition and fees matches last year's rate of 6.3 percent.  Grant aid provided by private college and universities to undergraduates was an estimated $13.8 billion in 2006-07, an increase of 7.8 percent from the previous year. Because of our commitment to providing a quality education at the lowest possible out-of-pocket cost, this year's average net tuition (published price minus grants and tax benefits) for a student at a private college is 40 percent below the average published tuition -- $14,400 vs. $23,712. 

NAICU President David Warren Comments on Amherst College's Decision to Eliminate Student Loans

Amherst College's decision to replace all loans with grants is a bold move that will help ensure access to an affordable, world-class education for students of modest means. It is a dramatic example of the quiet revolution underway at the nation's private colleges and universities.
