[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, our son is in this position, and I would really rather he go to the state school. It’s much more important to go to the big name school for graduate school than undergrad. If you want to help, help her get excited about the option she has. And absolutely make sure she doesn’t incur debt going to a fancy school. [/quote] One important point: The parents’ willingness to fill out aid forms might be as important as willingness to pay a certain amount. Access to work-study jobs, loans and merit aid might depend on the parents just filling out the forms. So, one thing parents who are thrifty but not hateful can do is to at least fill out the aid forms and to support the kids’ efforts to scrounge up their own money. [/quote]
