[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Short version of this thread: I want people to say nice things to me but the truth is I ignored all advice about affording college and overestimated my kid’s competitiveness as an applicant.[/quote] In fairness, I underestimated our ability to pay and underestimated my kid’s competitiveness as an applicant, and this process has still been stressful and horrible. [/quote] Why is it all so stressful and horrible? Tell your kid to suck it up and go to Towson for one year. Transfer to UMD after one year. I don’t think you should be completely allergic to loans. 5-10k loans per year is completely manageable. [/quote]
