[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents told me that if I went to any school that cost X, they'd pay for the whole thing. Any amount above X was on me. They didn't say I could or could not go anywhere - they just told me their parameters. As an adult, I think what they did was very smart - set a limit, let me make the decision, and they stayed within their means.[/quote] My parents said exactly the same thing to me. I wound up getting a fantastic education at UMD. I wouldn't change a thing.[/quote] Yep! My parents did the same thing. I had a full ride to a fabulous state school. If I chose that option my parents said they'd pay for housing, let me take my car to college and give me a new car at graduation if I graduated with honors. I personally didn't even want to go to a private college, I was obsessed with the college town experience, football and lots of options for majors. [/quote]
