Abstract: While the most visible measure of college costs is published tuition, because of financial aid, this "sticker price" does not necessarily reflect the costs that students and their families actually pay. To the extent that students and their families are concerned about what costs they will need to pay to cover tuition charges, the relevant measure is "net tuition," which is the "sticker price" less any grant aid students receive. This report seeks to document the trends in net tuition over the period starting with the 1999-2000 academic year and ending with the 2008-09 academic year and relate the trends in net tuition to the trends in published tuition. This report provides estimates for the following measures: (1) Published Tuition: the "sticker price" of college; (2) Net Student Tuition: how much students actually pay for tuition (that is, sticker price less grant and scholarship aid); (3) Net Student Price: how much students actually pay, including non-tuition expenses, after accounting for grant and scholarship aid; and (4) College Net Tuition Revenue: how much tuition revenue colleges receive per student. Appended are: (1) Alternative Methods of Calculating Net Tuition; (2) Carnegie Classification Categories; (3) Tax Benefits and Carnegie Classifications; and (4) Aid by Student Class Level. (Contains 6 figures, 7 tables, and 19 footnotes.)
