[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not middle class though pp. $200k is not middle class.[/quote] PP, 200K is middle class in DC . average mortgage here is $4,000/mos for a house in a borderline crime area ( 800K for the house) . If you have 2-3 kids, there tuition alone would be $120K for three kids ( 40K per kid at STA, Sidwell, GDS) That being said, OP, as you noticed you won;t get much traction for FA . Not here, and not at most schools. Choose your options. families with your income are the exact group that is being priced out of DC Privates. They know it, and they'd like to keep families like yours, but they can's afford to owing to both the hit they took in their invested portfolios in 2008 recession and their expenditures on capital improvements ( improvements which their well healed parents expect ) [/quote]
