[QUOTE="TCUdirtbag, post: 2904641, member: 61297"] Yes, absolutely incredible news! Worth noting that: - pre-Covid, this was expected to be a record enrollment year - the 11,379 is 2% under the pre-Covid budget - but with Covid, TCU had made budget cuts to prepare for a drop in enrollment from 20-40% - the increases in enrollment are in spite of restrictions that meant almost no new international students could travel to the US to enroll (IOW, countering a decrease in international enrollment) - to keep enrollment numbers, the school did pull money from the endowment to increase the discount rate another 7-10% - but Boschini said this increased aid is something that should be preserved going forward as it puts TCU’s discount rate on par with its aspirant peers So while there are still some financial gaps, TCU is far outpacing the expectations in the current environment. Really, really good news. Add on the very positive Covid trend, and TCU is on course to survive the financial blow of Covid with a lot less pain than expected. Hope that stays on track and that football can be played to avoid financial havoc within athletics! [/QUOTE]
