[quote=Anonymous]Our oldest son is a freshman in state at JMU. We put a few hundred dollars in his 529 since he was born. It accumulated to about $110,000. JMU is about $28K a year for tuition, dorm, and meal plan. Our son got not merit aid or financial aid. Got 6 credits for dual enrollment. He didn't get any credit for his APs because I think he got 3s on his exams. So if you didn't save, I would think you need to take student loans. I'm guessing you can't get subsidized loans like us either. So your kid will need to take unsubsidized loans. Obviously, there are more more expensive schools and less expensive schools than JMU. You will need to do you due diligence on cost and merit aid. Good luck. [/quote]
