[quote=Anonymous]1. What's your HHI? $180K 2. Are you paying the tuition or are the grandparents helping out (did someone leave money for this purpose)? We have been saving since they were little so tuition will be paid through a combination of their college funds and cash 3. Scholarships or financial aid? No financial aid. 4. Did you set any financial guidelines RE: school selection? If so, what were they? Yes, we told them we could afford to send them to state schools. Anything above that would be on them to make up the difference thru loans, merit aid, working, etc. This pretty much ruled out all of the top-50 private schools, so they focused on schools where merit aid could be had, or of course the option for state schools was there. 5. Will you give your kid a monthly allowance? No 6. Do you expect your kid to have a PT gig during school (and over the summer)? Over the summer, yes. If they wanted additional spending money beyond what they made over the summer, they were free to find a PT gig. [/quote]
