[quote=Anonymous]DC is a nmsf. #1 in class at academically rigorous private. All the right extracurriculars, internships, national and international awards to be competitive at Ivy and top private schools. We will be paying full freight--absolutely no aid. We can do so, but DH and I are first generation to go to college, do a cost benefit analysis for everything and have spent years supporting family members. We have a 529 plan for DC which would pay for excellent state school in this area but are not the best schools for DC's likely majors--plans to double major. DC has applied to said schools as "likely" admissions. If DC is admitted to Ivy or Ivy-lite is it really worth paying $65000 a year on top of the $250,000 we have already paid for grammar school and high school? This seems so crazy, and yet, DC has worked hard to get to this spot. What would you do? DC will likely ultimately seek a PhD so there are a lot of years of school ahead. [/quote]
