[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for your inputs and sorry for my delayed response. Since in-state VA flagship didn't work, DD decided to take next best option with OOS school with potentially great prospects. In lieu of 529 plans, I had invested in a second home and sold some time back and have $200K+ in brokerage accounts.

Our plan all along was to use it if in-state option won't work, and supplement with savings/income. In hindsight, we should have planned for more target schools rather than lot of reach schools. Since I don't have any other debts except for primary home mortgage with lot of equity, I was considering if HELOC would be an idea, but looks like it may not. My DS isn't college bound for another 4 years for whom I'm considering Invest529 plan this year. (I know I'm late in the process.)

No OOS public costs that much.[/quote]

Berkeley is $70K.[/quote]

Nobody stays on the meal plan or in the dorms past freshman year (even if they wanted to).

And that's a choice. Don't go OOS.[/quote]
