[quote=Anonymous]We make about $210 pre tax, have two kids and lots of medical bills. Likelihood of getting ANY aid? We could carry most of it but the top school choice happens to be the most expensive, at least $5k more a year than most privates here, because its specialized. We have one old car, and live in a nice SFH, that's completely undecorated or updated, only because we bought fifteen years ago but still have a healthy mortgage. We are willing to make significant cuts in lifestyle to afford this, but are we going to be expected to completely deplete the savings we have to do it (not huge) or are aid calculations based mainly on HHI. Just like 15-20% aid would make it doable for us. [/quote]
