I could see a situation where those who have plenty of money and are not<br>
dependent on loans would still go to traditional colleges, whereas those<br>
without the means up front would transition to dramatically lower-cost<br>
options.<br>
<br>
Both could end up with similar degrees and similar scores on the GRE. But<br>
one would have connections.<br>
