[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend/family member (being vague on this) whose kid was admitted to a Big3 for high school. HHI $450K-500K+, two homes worth 2 million+ (one rented out), country club membership, one tuition. I am 100% sure the estimate of their income is correct. They asked for and received 50% aid. I'm honestly shocked and surprised. We pinch our pennies for this school and even donate beyond. We make less money than they do. I never even thought of asking for aid. This kid is not a minority, very smart but no special hooks. I'm just sort of floored. I feel like broadcasting this to the school. It feels like a gut punch. This is not a troll post or made-up post. [/quote] Surprised you have the time to be counting their money.[/quote] If OP is donating and part goes to FA, OP is actually counting how much of their own money the friend is taking. [/quote]
