HOW DO WE SET NEXT YEAR'S TUITION IN OUR BUDGET PROCESS? (QUESTIONS 12-15)


12. Why does our comprehensive fee go up so fast? Has it been going up faster, more slowly, or the same as our "peer schools"?

13. By raising tuition, isn't Grinnell abandoning its image as the "best buy" among highly-selective liberal arts colleges?

14. Can you explain again what the tuition discount rate is? I can never keep straight whether "improving" this number means making it higher or lower….

15. Why do we keep decreasing financial aid?

Next set of questions (16-20): How do we set next year's salary pools in our budget process?
Return to the previous question (11): Do new buildings create budget pressures?
