[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For families making $200k to $400k (of which there are a lot in the dmv. Two parents each making $150k, etc). If you have a senior going to college, what kind of merit aid are you seeing?

We were at ~$280k for 2024 (the tax year colleges review for current HS seniors). DS has strong-ish stats like so many others (4.0 w, 1400 (not submitted except to safeties), deep ec's including 4 years volunteer, robotics, debate, and varsity athlete- not playing in college).

We received $20k merit from two T50 private universities, $40k from two SLACs, and $70k/yr from a target liberal arts school where we expressed extreme interest. $1.3m house w/$950k mortgage and virtually all savings in retirement funds.

What merit aid are others in this income range seeing? [/quote]

Out of curiosity, how much do you have saved for retirement? Also, which liberal arts school offered $70k/yr?[/quote]

This sounds too good to be true... 
OP, would you be willing to share which schools?  Thanks![/quote]
