[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, it's ridiculous.  Send your kid to a decent public school - there are plenty of them.  [/quote]

Most likely what we are doing- W&M or UVA

I just read all these people fighting over prestige and it’s crazy.  My kid got into many of these schools they are raving about, but not worth the $.[/quote]

Has your child been accepted to either of those schools?  Not an easy get.  Also - some kids are not a good fit for huge state schools.  So - why do you care how others spend their money?[/quote]

My DC has been accepted in state to w&m. The estimated cost for in state is $43k. Insane! [/quote]
Welcome to the New World. That’s what I’ve been trying to tell family (incl DH) and until they looked it up themselves, they just didn’t believe me.  Their “oh just go to [UVA/VT/W&M]” doesn’t fly. First, your DC has to get in (congrats, btw!!), then you’ve literally got to justify the multiple six-figures to go. Our household is having issues with the latter so some plans have been majorly (all puns intended?) changed.

I’m not really complaining but it sure is a bit of a bitter pill to swallow.[/quote]
