[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be blunt OP, it doesn’t make sense to you because you are living in a different universe than they are. I don’t mean that in an insulting way. The options available to you and your family are not realistic for them and their family. It is similar to the Radford discussion here the other day. We aren’t talking “oh your kid ONLY got into UVA but it’s not so bad because we are full pay”. It is hey I was raised by a single mom working three part time jobs, I can’t get into UVA, but I got a two year DE degree and then my RN from a place like Radford and I am now middle class. That’s a greater achievement relative to opportunity than most DC private school kids can boast. DE can do that for a lot of kids. DE is a great thing if used properly. Just have to be careful and know what it can and can’t do, how much it might cost, and what the risks might be in terms of financial aid by taking free credits now.[/quote] +1[/quote]
