[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Similar stats to you, but we have one kid and we get financial aid. Money is tight and DH thinks we should pull the kid back to public. [/quote] How much aid do you get? Aid would definitely help.[/quote] About 8k. Brings the monthly payment down to something we can manage. When we enrolled DD we had a higher HHI (DH has since taken a paycut) and lower monthly expenses (costly home repairs we're paying off). Those really took us from comfortable with tuition to uncomfortable, but it's very difficult to leave the school now, several years in. So just make sure you are not too close to the edge of affordability. [/quote]
