[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you willing for DS to attend college out of state? Both public and private universities try to have geographic diversity and many give both financial aid and merit aid to attract kids with scores/grades above their averages who also round out the class. You would have to factor in added cost of travel home.[/quote] Yes, by all means, unless the cost is prohibitive (I don’t mean the travel home cost, this one we can afford). Do you think it’s realistic for him to get a full ride or close to it OOS?[/quote] Impossible to say for a 8th grader. Remember, for most schools when you get a need based financial aid package, an applicant is first given loans. To come out of school with as little debt as possible, he should stick to California schools. What he would get merit wise is impossible to predict. [/quote]
