[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were very clear about budget upfront and DD and DS opted not to apply to schools that were unlikely to meet our budget ($40k/yr). That meant their only reaches were in-state public Us. We did tell them they were welcome to apply wherever she wanted but in the end it had to be in budget, we're now doing loans. One went to VT (not engineering, major had an 80% acceptance rate), had a great experience, just graduated and has a great job DD went to a safety LAC and also doing well. Work is challenging, lots of good experiences in her major, has made good friends. If your DD isn't excited about her options, she could still put in apps to schools that have later deadlines and are generous with merit aid. Or, if she'd wanted UMD, go to CC and transfer [/quote] That should read "we're NOT doing loans"[/quote]
