[quote=Anonymous]This was my sibling. They thought the pricey SLAC would give their DC way more aid than DC got. They didn't run the NPC. They made too much. They couldn't float the extra, so their DC went to the local (20 min away) in state public. It worked out for them; they got a really good paying job out of college (while their friends went oos/private and are still paying off loans). We knew we would get zilch in FA. And we were right. We only saved enough for in state for both kids. One decided to stay in state; the other is going oos but they are using part of their inheritance from grandparents to pay for it. They will come out of college a lot poorer than the DC who is going to in state, by a lot. We are first gen immigrants. This forum actually informed me about the NPC. Never knew it existed until a couple of years ago. It doesn't surprise me that middle America doesn't understand college costs.[/quote]
