What this information means

Model the complete four-year cost

A lower listed price can still be unaffordable after exchange-rate changes, travel, insurance, and annual increases. Compare the amount your family can sustain for four years.

Aid prevalence is not aid generosity

6.1% receiving aid shows how common an award was in the reported year, while the average award helps estimate scale. Neither figure explains your likely package or the current policy.

Selectivity needs context

A low overall rate means the college should be treated as highly uncertain for every applicant. It cannot be the only financial or academic route on your list.
