[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're considering this, can you help me understand your thinking? Rising senior twins here and we're trying to hammer out lists. Why pay $90K for Syracuse or Bucknell vs. paying half this for Pitt or Penn State? [/quote] You still don’t know this? Some rich people (not all) send their kids to expensive private schools so that they won’t have to deal with poor kids as often. [/quote] We are a full-pay, money is no barrier for an expense like this family. Both DCs are at privates. DC1's friends are nearly all on financial aid, some near all FA. DC2's friends are more varied - two of the friends are similar to them and the others more varied. Even if not on FA, they need to hustle up jobs for spending money during the school year and have paying jobs in addition to their internships.[/quote]
