[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, in-state is off the table if you’re a DC resident. It’s a myth that you get in-state rates https://www.thecollegefundingcoach.org/the-myth-of-the-d-c-resident-paying-in-state-tuition/ [b]Aside from that, we are saving $20/month for each child in their 529 account. I’m sure most people here will laugh, but it’s what we can afford and it’s better than nothing. [/b] They are in elementary school and have $23k a piece due to a hefty starting gift from a grandparent. We will hope our child qualifies for financial aid due to our HHI being below $70k. Beyond that I have no idea what we will do to make up the rest. I guess just be real clear with the children that they need to major in a field with a clear job track and marketable skills to pay back loans. No one will be permitted to major in literature or history unless they plan on pursuing a PHD. Will also push community college or technical training/ vocational school. [/quote] I'm impressed.
