Other Schools
Some schools, such as Bard College and Albright College, have a need-blind admissions policy, but do not guarantee to meet the full demonstrated financial need of the students it admits. Still more schools, like Tufts University, are actively pursuing a need-blind admissions policy but have not yet had the resources to fully implement it (in 2009 claiming to have examined 95% of applicants need-blind).
In 2009, only two boarding high schools, Phillips Academy and St. Andrew's School, were need-blind; others stopped the policy due to the economic pressures. Roxbury Latin, a day school outside of Boston, is also need-blind.

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“To me, nothing can be more important than giving children books, It’s better to be giving books to children than drug treatment to them when they’re 15 years old. Did it ever occur to anyone that if you put nice libraries in public schools you wouldn’t have to put them in prisons?”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
“I lay my eternal curse on whomsoever shall now or at any time hereafter make schoolbooks of my works and make me hated as Shakespeare is hated. My plays were not designed as instruments of torture. All the schools that lust after them get this answer, and will never get any other.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
