[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just make sure your kid doesn't apply to schools that don't offer merit aid. This is most top50 schools. You'd be surprised at how many people here have $90k/year for any school so your kids' friends will be applying to all of them without a second thought. [/quote] This. I'll never forget talking with a friend about where our kids were applying, and she got a concerned look on her face when I named the schools on DS's list. She said, "I feel like you aren't aiming high enough for Larlo." (He was an excellent student.) I said, "We're aiming for schools we can afford," and it was like it had never occurred to her that 2 government employees might not be able to swing $70k/year for 2 kids. [/quote] Two government employees can make 150-450k a year. You can pay for state college with that. [/quote] reading is fundamental. [/quote] +1 😊[/quote]
