[quote=Anonymous]Actual private school FA receipt family here also—we did not count on one specific school to meet our needs. We applied to 6 schools and 4 of them accepted plus provided aid. Only 1 of the 4 FA packages weren’t going to cut it for us. I would advise applying to multiple schools or none. You don’t want your daughter to carry “I would have gone to XYZ but couldn’t afford it…” and feel resentful when she sees others from the school. Ages ago, my mom wouldn’t let me apply to Madeira because she thought we couldn’t afford it (but she didn’t know about financial aid). In the end, 100% of my college was paid because I went to public 7-12. [/quote]
