[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are in a situation where you need merit aid, you may want to encourage your son to pursue a more employable degree.[/quote] +1[/quote] This comment reveals your ignorance on this topic. Generally speaking, families who are seeking merit aid are doing so because they make [i]too much[/i] money not because they make too little. If this family were lower income, they'd be looking at schools that are generous with *financial* aid--awarded on the basis of financial need--not merit aid. Indeed, OP herself has indicated that the family makes a very comfortable income, but not enough that they feel they can afford to spend $250k on college.[/quote]
