[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My oldest "underapplied" and racked up significant merit aid at smaller schools. (As a fed/teacher family, we needed that help and she did not want to run up significant loan debt for undergrad) She is thriving as big fish in a small pond. For her that is a significant self-esteem boost and she will likely graduate double major/double minor, summa cum laude, with many leadership positions and faculty connections. The school name may not buy her access to a job as easily, but this kid will make it in life. And she is happy![/quote] A Fed/Teacher family can do very well financially - $160-300K.[/quote]
