A. H. Studenmund
This paper examines the effects of financial aid on the decision to attend a selective liberal arts college using data obtained from applicants accepted to Occidental College in 1989.

The authors also show, in the first direct test of this question, that the critical wage and the expected wage are determined jointly and that the expected wage …
