[quote=Anonymous]We made the mistake of allowing our daughter to apply to her dream school in the first place. Really, if you can't afford it, don't visit it and don't let your kid apply. Then there is no heartbreaking to do. We straight up told our daughter she could only go if she received a substantial merit aid award. That happened at a few other less desirable schools. She was very disappointed not to go to her dream school but understood that we did not want her or us in debt. She ended up at the perfect school for her and is happy as can be and doing amazing academically. It all worked out. We will not let our other children apply to schools we can't afford going forward. There is no point to it if you aren't going to let your kids go there anyway.[/quote]
