[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will be starting K at a "Big 3" in the fall and receive a substantial FA package. Is this something we should be secretive about? I am a pretty open person and wouldn't naturally think to not speak about receiving FA but I've been told that this is a private thing and the schools would prefer that no one discusses it. What has been your experience in this regards? [/quote] Do not bring it up with parents at the school. I know someone who has done this and it causes feelings of unfairness for families who are scraping it together to pay full tuition. Better to be gracipus and silent.[/quote] OP, I think the real issue is you need to be respectful that many families are scraping it together to afford the school and that you don't want to get into comparing amounts of aid awards with other FA families.[/quote]
