[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Repeating the advice, because it bears repeating, that any family who isn't wealthy needs to establish residency before the end of high school, elsewhere than DC, to pay in-state tuition for college. Some states have a look-back period, so don't wake up in 12th grade. In-state colleges are 30-40K/yr right now total cost of attendance. Out of state costs rise to 50K-60K. Private colleges and universities are moving towards the 90K-100K/yr. Financial aid comes mostly in the form of loans, and don't even cover half of the total costs. There is no such thing as a full ride anymore, except in very unusual circumstances. Merit aid is a straight-up discount, but it's hard to get. [/quote] Is the DC TAG program still around? Is it expected to be in the future?[/quote] It is, 10k, so some help, but not that much. [/quote] Yep and I think every few years it needs approval in the budget so not sure thing[/quote]
