[quote=Anonymous]we are at just under 350, and FAFSA is only showing eligibility for a 6K federal loan per year. We have friends who are roughly at 250K and my friend told me their FAFSA was the same (which seems not right but what do I know). That said - I really took to heart the Buyers vs sellers school idea. AND, my kid is an average B student. No hooks; decent activities, though no leadership; no test scores; clearly in the ADHD program at school. She was accepted into 2 50-100 schools - one offered merit ($6K) and the other didn't, and then 4 over 100 ranked schools. The two state schools offered 8K per year. The private SLAC (both ranked below 150, but schools you've heard of) offered 25K and 32K per year. I say this because this board made me think my b-average kid, with a bunch of Cs, mgiht not get in anyplace and certainly wouldn't get merit. [/quote]
