[quote=Anonymous]I think you are doing the right thing to consider this. I see this as a potential pitfall for low income students headed to top colleges, not understanding that choice of major/career can dramatically affect potential income level. In addition, note that many high income careers involve grad school, which might not have the same type of widely available financial aid as a low income student might get for undergrad. I would approach this from both ends, first starting with what his interests might be, on the front end, and then looking at what sorts of careers can result on the back end. I suggest that he stay flexible, as interests often change during college and afterward.[/quote]
