*(As to the undergraduate programs, here's what I wrote for The Herald-Mail
(printed in their November 24 issue):*

*To The Editor:*
*It was great to read "To Harvard from here? Yes, it is possible" by Spence
Perry (The Herald-Mail, November 14, 2012). It is unfortunate that
qualified students in Washington County continue to be discouraged from
applying to Princeton or Harvard because of the "high cost" (approximately
$52,000 per year). This, despite major efforts to inform students, parents,
educators and administrators in this area that, for instance, Princeton is
firmly committed to meeting 100% of the financial need for every qualified
student, with an aid package that does not require a loan.*
*According to the university, at Princeton the average aid package for a
student admitted to the Clas of 2016 is $39,700**
http://www.princeton.edu/admission/financialaid/how_it_works/who_qualifies/*<http://www.princeton.edu/admission/financialaid/how_it_works/who_qualifies/>
* ). For families with gross family income below $100,000 per annum the
average grant is considerably higher, covering full tuition ($38,650) as
well as a substantial percentage of room and board. For the Class of 2016
full tuition, room and board were entirely covered by financial aid for
families with incomes below $60,000.*
*Princeton has a long history of providing access through financial aid for
qualified students and, for at least three decades, has "offered aid to
cover 100 percent of each admitted student's need." In 2001, "Princeton
became the first university to offer every aid recipient a financial aid
package that replaces loans with grant aid (scholarships) that students do
not pay back."*
*Most importantly, admission is need blind for all applicants (including
international students); Princeton's financial aid is awarded solely based
on need (there are no merit scholarships -- academic and athletic merits
are not considered when awarding aid); and no student is required to take a
loan to meet Princeton's costs (grants and scholarships will cover all
needs).
Finally, as so well presented in Mr. Perry's column, alumni throughout the
world consider it a privilege to help the Office of Admission by
interviewing candidates and responding to their questions about their alma
mater. Last year most of the 26,664 applicants for undergraduate admission
to Princeton were given the opportunity to meet with an alumnus for such an
interview. Our record in Maryland was 100% -- all applicants were contacted
and interviewed by Princeton alumni eager to share their own experiences
and to respond to a new generation of interested students.*
*With best wishes,*
