[quote=Anonymous][quote]When DD friends found out she accepted substantial merit aid to attend an out-of-state public, several friends said it must be that she didn't reach high enough - if they wanted her so bad. Fast forward, that merit aid permitted her (monetarily) to be receiving doctorate - probably first in her class.[/quote] Good for your DD--her friends sound like brats. However the latter part doesn't really make that much sense. Most doctorates worth doing are funded (with a few exceptions). And typically, at least for your federal loans you can defer interest while you are in grad school. So why would the merit aid impact her ability, financially to go to grad school?[/quote]
