[quote=Anonymous]At least 80% of our independent Catholic school families are price sensitive about college, possibly more. Even those who are not worried about cost were not 'ivy or bust' or even rank conscious, knowing that the rank system is bogus. Most people are reasonable and focused on what each kid wants and needs, even applying ED to target schools and not bothering with reaches. Even people who can afford any price would rather not pay full price if a good fit school offers merit. That's just common sense. FWIW, if you are not rank obsessed, you absolutely do not have to pay over 100K per year for an excellent college. So many amazing schools offer significant merit aid. IME, the price you see is rarely the "real price."[/quote]
