| NCES 2001155 | Middle Income Undergraduates: Where They Enroll and How They Pay for Their Education
This report examines the characteristics of dependent middle-income undergraduates who attended college full-time, full-year, and how they paid for their education. It also compares these undergraduates with their lower and higher income counterparts. It examines strategies that these middle income undergraduates might have used to meet the gap between financial aid and financial need (unmet need). The report also looks at how they filled the gap between price of attendance and the amount of financial aid they received (out-of-pocket costs). Data are shown separately for those with financial need and no financial need, and by price of attendance. |

| NCES 2001171 | Undergraduates Enrolled with Higher Sticker Prices
This report investigates the differences between undergraduates who attended postsecondary institutions by the sticker price levels they faced. Student characteristics, reasons for attendance finances, academic differences, student satisfaction, and persistence are among the topics explored. Undergraduates attending institutions with higher sticker prices and those in public research universities with sticker prices below $12,000 were traditional and academically prepared students from families with similar family incomes. However, undergraduates in the two groups had different reasons for selecting the institutions they did. |
