Edgewood College Hopes New Tuition Grant Will Compete with UW Schools for Students

Edgewood College (WI) will offer a new grant next year — the first of its kind among Wisconsin’s private institutions — that will cap certain incoming students’ annual tuition payment at $11,400, in the hopes of challenging the notion that private colleges are far pricier than state schools. Officials have posted requirements for the grant online, allowing students to learn if they qualify for the tuition rate before they even submit their application.
