[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your salary is likely too high for much financial aid and too low to pay for private. Welcome to the upper middle class.[/quote]

NOT TRUE! Take a walk to the Private Schools forum. there is a current discussion on this topic and there are folks over there making over $200K getting aid.

OP - please give it a try![/quote]

Call McLean, sienna, [b]commonwealth[/b] and talk to admissions!!  See what they say and then you can go from there.  Good luck!![/quote]

I agree!  The PPs are right that many of the SN schools haven't been 'round as long as some of the other privates so don't have rich endowments, but it never hurts to ask.  I don't know anything about financial aid at our school, Commonwealtlh Academy, but the Director of Admissions, Josh Gwilliam, will be happy to talk to you and will be frank.  He'll also direct you to other schools that may be more appropriate for your family.  His number is. (703) 548-6912.  I don't think C/A has any kind of merit aid but could be wrong.  Act fast because I did once inquire about F/A and was told "it was all gone" for that year.  Also, this is the time of year when offers have gone out and contracts are coming back in.  The school doesn't have many openings except in the natural starter classes for middle school and high school.[/quote]
