[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^to be fair to the counselors, I'd venture that you need to tell them if you're looking for financial aid. They can't and shouldn't assume that. [/quote]Which is why she said she was 'shut out'...no opportunity to sit with the counselor and discuss the parent's frame of reference...it was[i] student-led[/i] with the resulting disappointment. Of course, disappointment is integral to the college application process but in my DC's public school, the counselor specifically asked if we had run the NPC's for schools on the wish-list, and directed us to a few schools with merit-based aid when I said we were a full-pay situation[/quote] The process [i]should[/i] be student-led. Too bad the kid wasn't informed what sort of the financial contribution his parents were in a position to make. [/quote]
