[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You make one really good point: families in the $180-$250ish HHI are truly screwed. You earn too much for financial aid and can't afford the price tag. Yep, you're screwed. To your other issue: Statistically speaking, how many families earn between $180-$250k [i]and[/i] get two kids into HYPS (with acceptance rates about 5% for one kid)? Gotta be really small. Your lottery odds may be better. [/quote] My child was admitted to one of those schools a few years ago, from the Blair magnet. Straight As with one B in HS and 2360 SATs. Our HHI is $230K and we could not pay the full price. Child is at a well-regarded state flagship school on a full merit scholarship. We have set that child's college savings aside for graduate school. We know many families like ours.[/quote]
