[quote=Anonymous]I would advise getting familiar with these schools' net price calculators and admissions competitiveness before you finalize your list. When we did early tours to get a sense of different types of schools, we kept the visits to safeties and matches that could potentially fit our budget. I did not want to set my kid up to fall in love with a school that I knew at the outset was close to impossible given our budget (which is totally reasonable w/ those that give merit aid but not full pay at these schools). It also has helped my now-junior DD to tone down the college pressure knowing already that there are a couple schools she can really see herself at and that we can afford. I think the most challenging part of building the college list is finding safeties/low matches you can love. [/quote]
