[quote=Anonymous]Website states "most" families under a certain income threshold will qualify for free tuition. Our AGI is under that amount by about 25k iirc and we didn't get free tuition. We did get a discount, but it's not 0. And obviously we are billed full amount for dorm/food, fees, etc. Should I call the financial aid office to inquire why? Or should I leave well enough alone? My concern is that inquiring may trigger something that will makes matters worse. Or if they say, oh, it's because you have $X in savings and if we spend some of that down over the next year, it will look suspicious for next year. We will have to spend some of it as we are anticipating the need to replace HVAC and some appliances in the next year or so. We will definitely also use money in that account for tuition. So it will diminish regardless. Other than this amount (which would cover COA for 4 years with very little if any left) all of our additional money is in retirement.[/quote]
