[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t let her apply. The high and low of getting in but not getting to go is too much. If you need financial aid, it’s not worth it. What if the financial aid gets reduced or cut the following year? How do you keep up with the expenses of private school sports and service trips? How will she feel when she sees the lifestyle of the wealthy girls who travel to glamorous vacations every long weekend? It’s all a lot. I think it’s a much better example to say that the $20,000 a year you would spend, for example, is better put towards her college. I love our private all girls school but it’s not worth a financial sacrifice. [/quote]
