The College Board has a new report: "Paying for College: Students from Middle-Income Backgrounds."
"Families at the upper end of the broad middle-income range have seen their incomes increase slightly, while those at the lower end of this range have seen their incomes decline."
This is a very short, bullet-point type report, and worth taking a look at. Particularly if you're trying to figure out financial aid strategies.

This is alarming specially right now wherein we are still affected by recession. What will become of the lower end of the middle income range families who may no longer be able to spend for their financial education? Just a thought. Thanks for the information.
