[quote=Anonymous]Except for the last two posters, I think this thread is full of a lot of people who have no idea what they are talking about. You have no idea if or how much aid you will get until you apply. Look at schools' FA info and 990s to see their FA budgets. The schools with larger budgets are more likely to offer a better FA package. Some schools will share the HHI range for families receiving FA. Our HHI is slightly lower than yours with only one child in a tuition-based program, and we have been receiving a very generous package since K. Our school does ask whether we have other kids in tuition-based programs, so having two kids may impact the FA offered. Just apply and see what happens. I would also suggest looking at your local Catholic or other lower tuition schools so you have an option if you do not get FA at your chosen school. Also, since FA is required to attend, apply to more schools than you think you need to, so you could potentially have options. Good luck![/quote]
