[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty much every college outside of top 40 gives really generous merit awards. This is why I don't understand parents bitching about college costs. Like sorry, I guess you should have made your kid earn more As and prepped for the SAT instead of six day per week travel sports, iPhone & Netflix all day.[/quote] [b]In many cases, in-state is still cheaper. [/quote][/b] Definitely true for us. We're in the donut hole and paying outrageous amounts for health care so every penny counts. It came down to HYPS at $70K a year plus airfare or train vs. UVA at $26K inclusive. No way we could afford a $45K differential in after tax dollars per year.[/quote]
