[quote=Anonymous]We've been upfront with DS about what colleges we can afford. He can only apply to privates that offer merit aid and to in-state publics. That's it. We wasted a lot of time and money visiting colleges that offered no merit aid with DC#1, who got into all the colleges, but we could afford none of them. So, at least on the front end, we are very involved. With DC#1, the final decision came down to money. We refused to take on loans, and DC#1 had several good in-state and private with merit options. If money were no object, then I think we might back off a bit and let DS decide where to apply. But that's not an option. He can only apply to colleges we can afford. [/quote]
