[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most (or maybe all) colleges have online net price calculators. You could play around with that and see if there are any scenarios where you would get any aid. I doubt there are, but it's worth a few minutes to be sure.[/quote] These are not always accurate. My alma mater’s NPC did not ask about retirement savings but the CSS sure as hell did and we had to decline an acceptance. I was told it was our millions in retirement that disqualified us from aid. Should never have donated when I was so young - the school made hundreds of thousands on my tens of thousands in donations and would not even help me out when I was ill and we needed help with tuition. I tell my kids to start 529s before they donate to their alma maters, lest they end up in the same situation as me. [/quote]
