[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ our oldest daughter was automatically extended in-state rate PLUS in-house merit awards (she didn't apply for) from some pretty good out-of-state public U's. These weren't detailed anywhere on their website before she applied. I think colleges are very aggressive in targeting kids with good stats. And they appreciate the diversity of OOS, non-international kids.[/quote] ^ my point is you don't know until you apply, hence kids applying to 10-20 colleges and comparing offers. it is tedious to handle all the applications and especially all the college board financial aid paperwork, but in retrospect it's well worth it. let the teen do their essays, mom and dad collect 2015-2018 taxes returns and w-2s and bank statements[/quote]
