[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just appealed for more money to the private school my daughter really wants to attend.

We had planned on being able to full pay public university, and this school does sometimes give enough money to bring it in line with what public school costs. Currently, they are $15K per year too much. Trying to get them to acknowledge this and send more money our way. Which isn't "real" money anyway - this is all discounts off their overinflated tuition cost, as no one there pays full price.[/quote]

Nobody caved for our appeals so far.  I think yields are going to be hurting this year.  More waitlist movement.[/quote]

I am crossing my fingers because this isn’t a school that most on this board would even consider and they do seem to throw a lot of talent money around (performing arts). As kids turn them down for other programs, they have more money for remaining candidates-or at least that is what we are hoping for. I know this has happened for others in the past. Wish us luck.[/quote]
