[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there seriously people here making 200k+ and bitching about not getting need based aid? Do you even listen to yourselves?[/quote] not sure, but how about $130K income and a 68K per year price tag?[/quote] [b]At the Ivies, a family with $130k income and $200K in home equity and about $10k in the checking account would receive about $40k in grants/financial aid/discounts. No loans in the financial aid package, [/b]but an expectation for the student to do work-study for books and pocket money. The actual price would be about $30k +/- depending on the school. UVA in-state would be about the same cost because they would provide no grants and include student loans as financial aid. UMd in-state would be a couple thousand less and no financial aid. [/quote] Wow. That's incredible. Kind of a moot point for us since DC (like probably 99% of other students) isn't going to an Ivy, but thanks for that info.[/quote]
