[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a better strategy than banning kids from applying to certain schools is to be upfront about how much money they have for college. They can apply to any school, but in order to accept it has to fit the budget. Some school give generous aid to wealthy kids, and you don't know until you apply.[/quote]ate This is how my parents handled it and I have told my kids (now in middle school) the same thing. I applied to a few state schools, and a few out-of-state, including a couple private schools, a state U, one Ivy. Got in everywhere I applied but no aid so I went to my first choice in-state university and was very happy with it. I knew the OOS schools were a long-shot from a cost perspective so I never got my heart set on them.[/quote]
