[quote=Anonymous]The poster who said you'd not get admission unless you are a diversity case (???) is just...wrong, unless I am misunderstanding their point. Admission and FA are separate processes at most schools, and the admission decision comes before the FA notice. Your kid will get in if they are qualified and lucky, at most schools, not if you are wealthy or "diverse." My family is in the same boat, and to contradict that previous poster, why no, it is not almost impossible to send one kid to private on a HHI of $150k without FA. It is actually very doable. Old car, small house in PG county, use hand me downs freely. We care more about the school than the other stuff, so it isn't too hard for us. So OP, you may or may not get FA. Your income is just at or just above the line.[/quote]
