[quote=Anonymous]Again I say wAit to apply until at least middle school when your kid has grades and scores that mean something. Our experience has been that if yourchild is really in the top 5 percent of private school applicants the Big 3 schools will make it financially feasible for your child to attend. One of ours entered in 9th and one in 6th. People can object to middle class people getting financial aid but in truth these schools have to give it to compete in college admissions. Not everyone Who will have the academic and ECs to get into the ivies and similar colleges is rich. It's not about the parents and their ideas of what's right or wrong in FA. At the middle school and upper school levels it's all about the child and what he or she can do for their school. [/quote]
