[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We would not be able to afford without saving, things like flights home nor are we financially in a place to add an additional vehicle for taking to school. Would you discourage going away for college? [/quote] You should be clear with your child about your constraints But, assuming that your child is a bright student who’s good at turning things in, can do well even when not using AI and is getting good grades: you should encourage your child to apply to a wide range of schools that sound great and see what happens. Even rich kids with great stats should apply to the nearest state university, because anything can happen. But even broke kids with so-so stats should consider applying to a few dream schools if they want, because anything can happen. Maybe some schools that are expensive and far away will provide enough aid to make paying for travel easy. [/quote]
