[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious where most of you live in the DC area. We moved to DC area this year in Loudoun. My dd is a sophomore so I'm doing my research. It seems most kids out here stick with state schools and from what I've heard, the counselors really push them in that direction. Your DC's school choices are more in line with what I expected to see out here. What's going on?[/quote] The counselors do push them toward the state schools. I'm not sure why myself. Would be interested in finding out.[/quote] Because they cost so much less? As a counselor, you don't really know each family's financial status so why push kids to possibly take out huge debt to go OOS or private. Often financial aid, which includes mostly loans for the most part, only brings costs down to what an in-state school might cost, if you have the grades or a hook.[/quote]
