[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for this. We know TT and other private school grads that are in the “lower middle class for nyc” income bracket. My partner is the graduate and ended up in the arts and I’m a public school teacher. We’re looking at privates for the resources and the extensive curriculum, not for ex missions to ivy schools. We’re low key and not social climbers. Just want a good education for kiddo.

[quote=Anonymous]I’m a parent and legacy at a TT. Child entered at K. Was surprising to learn how many of the legacy families are on significant financial aid. Many are parents who went down the non finance/law/tech path and are successful in their own right, just not at the level to pay for nearly $70k a year.

Back when we went it was $15-20k per year. Incomes haven’t kept up with tuition growth.

Seeing the class makeup I strongly believe the school really does try to assemble a class of families who genuinely want to be there.

[quote=Anonymous]Following this.

Our HHI is about $125k combined
School (legacy from my partner) : 66,500
FA: ??

Anyone with similar income level looking at privates? I know schools purport to be need blind but I know they’re not. I wonder if being legacy would make a difference. [/quote][/quote][/quote]
