[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of America doesn’t apply and if they did and get in the average family gets significant aid[/quote] We have a $125k HHI income (our all time peak!) and don't have enough saved. We did the fafsa paperwork and have realized that we won't bother applying to private colleges or out of state publics. Our kids are fine but don't have the rock star paperwork that would make attending a possibility. My alma mater (Carnegie Mellon) had someone contact me about our kids coming for a tour. After a brief money discussion with them, we passed. I felt bad. Montgomery College it will be. We'll see where it goes from there. He might end up going the military route or find an employer who will pay to continue his education. Sorry, kid. You should have been born decades ago or chosen parents with more money.[/quote]
