what are deserving areas of need at TCU?
honest question they’ve doubled tuition in the past 10 years - how are they not flush with cash?
First, the budget is driven by professors salaries, administrative costs, building maintenance, etc. Those costs go up every year thereby increasing the budget and a need for tuition to keep pace.
Second, the Frog Club covers 100% of athletic scholarships.
Third, it was and still is students like me who were not rich, who had some money saved, but needed financial aid to afford TCU even at $80 per hour.
I think that is the greatest need. More scholarship money for the smart kids whose families aren't rich that want to come to TCU.
That is the young person I want to help.
Noah Daniels needs to realize that a $250,000 scholarship to a top 100 unvisersity is a heck of a lot of appreciation.
