[quote=Anonymous]OP, we are "full pay" people as well. But, not asking for need based financial aid does not eliminate the offer of "merit aid" (or discount for qualified full paid kids) which will come from some places. Our DC applied to 12 schools, listed not applying for need based aid on every application, and was accepted at all. Some offered "merit aid" which brought the price to about the same as local private high school costs. Some offered only a simple congratulations and a space in the class. But if you are interested where the qualifications put you toward the top of the accepted class, the declining need based aid may incentivize a merit offer from the institution. In the end our DC chose to go to one that did not offer merit aid, but there were numerous less expensive options that would have been excellent as well. Good luck. [/quote]
