[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I talked to my DD and wife about this last night. It went surprisingly well. Wife was the bigger problem than DD. I explained the difference in costs. The interest in BC was not because it is catholic/jesuit but it is a school in Boston which she likes. I explained that I am not sure I would pay the 70K. I could pay for Va Tech, for example, without any problem. W & M, probably -- we would make it work. I explained that for private, if she wants it, the best bet is to find one that likes her grades/music/EC's to get a merit scholarship. I think she gets that she is better off graduating from VT debt free than 150K in debt from BU. We will see. I also explained that we chose to live in a place that has really good public education -- including colleges. [/quote]
