[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't want to pay 400k, so either top 20 where we qualify for FA or jump down a level to a school ranked 50-60.

The only schools we're not looking at are those very good but no real merit and no FA (like BC) and OOS publics that give no merit.[/quote]

Yup, our family too. It's either an ivy or an in state public, maybe a merit-happy LAC. No in between.[/quote]

I mean Ivys are great but they suck a bit at the moment.  Rest of top 25 better IMO at the moment.[/quote]

Harvard has its problems, but it still gives out better aid than schools like Hopkins or WashU, to say nothing of the OOS publics.[/quote]

Hopkins gives out pretty good aid thanks to Bloomberg.[/quote]

Hopkins is less bad than it was, but its endowment is still about a fifth of Harvard's and its need based aid is not as good.[/quote]

How was Hopkins need based aid for your family? Which schools gave better and worse aid?[/quote]
