[quote=Anonymous]OP, figure out what is likely to be your annual college budget, what you can afford for this child. Try using some Net Price Calculators at various colleges using various financial assumptions to see whether need-based financial aid is likely to be available. There is no need to wait to start considering the financial end and talking with your child about this. For those students who will really need to focus on their in-state publics or else get merit scholarships to attend, knowing this upfront can be a huge help in making the list. Assuming aid will be enough, without having checked, would be a critical error.[/quote]
