[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh, pp. why are yours summing second tier will give more money? The schools that have more money are Princeton, Harvard etc.[/quote] Yes, they have more money, but they aren't giving it to us. We're the middle class who've been saving for years, and therefore don't qualify for need-based aid. Harvard won't give us aid, even though there's not a chance we could afford to pay the $60K annual cost of sending our child to Harvard. The only way we could do that would be to completely gut our retirement savings, leaving us with no possibility of rebuilding our savings because we are too old. Our children (and we have four) will look for scholarships, attend lesser schools that offer them money to lure them to their schools. Likely our children are top-tier quality (or close to it), but we don't have the money required to send them to top tier schools. [/quote]
