[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. What I don't understand is why it would tell me our family contribution (with 1 kid in college) is more than the total price is. I would think it would just say, yep, you're paying full freight, but the max is what the max is.[/quote]

OP, just read the directions carefully.

You are one person with one set of circumstances.  Contrary to your obvious beliefs, yours are not the only circumstances they have designed the system for.

And really is it that hard to say to yourself "111>67.  Therefore I must pay the full 67."?

This is a really unhelpful answer and I'm not sure what motivated you in posting it. Our oldest is going into his senior year so we are digging into the NPC and trying to figure out if we are doing it correctly or whether we've misinterpreted the spectacularly limited directions, which might explain why I got an answer I wasn't expecting. Where exactly are you reading my "obvious beliefs" that I'm looking for special treatment for my family? I'm not. I'm trying to figure out if I did it correctly or not, from people who have BTDT. An honest question that did not deserve your snark.[/quote]

Sometimes the colleges do make mistakes when configuring the NPC. Just call the financial aid office and ask them to walk it through with you.

You may be doing a service to others. [/quote]
