College Sticker Price Is Not a Receipt (theeduledger.com)

A claim that 64 percent of Georgetown students pay six figures rests on a mislabeled federal statistic. Believing it is what pushes students out.

Very happy that my piece "College Sticker Price is Not a Receipt" made it to the pages of EduLedger!

This idea is very much in line with my research on graduate education in mathematics. One of the main barriers keeping students from applying to graduate school is a lack of knowledge about funding in graduate school and perception they will have to pay for it out of pocket like undergrad.
