[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many kids do you have? If more than one, you'll need to work out this scenario for multiple kids. I'd say apply and see what happens. You could probably afford to cash flow some of it or fund with outside scholarships. Only you can determine if the ROI is there. There's different schools of thought on if Ivy degrees are worth it.[/quote] I'd say differently. Figure out finances ahead of time. They will not get Financial aide. Most of the T25-30 schools do NOT really offer merit (10 awards out of 2K freshman is not really offering it). So if you are not willing to be full pay, let your kid know. So they can have a great list of targets/safeties that will be in the price range you are willing to pay. [/quote] With that wealth they will need to go T100 or so to get substantial savings.
