Anomalous Aspects of Pricing in Higher Education.

Yanikoski, Richard A.

Journal of Education Finance, v15 n1 p84-100 Sum 1989

Discusses six propositions concerning higher education contradicting prevailing pricing wisdom: high demand rarely drives prices up; market share increases rarely drive prices down; competition drives prices up; tuition prices are only loosely tied to delivery costs; student tuition is only loosely tied to price; and high tuition prices do not necessarily pay off. Includes 28 footnotes. (MLH)
