[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]V[b]ery few actually pay the posted pric[/b]e. And it’s part of the school culture to complain about the cost. You never know who is paying nearly nothing to attend. At my lottery school the rich got the best scholarships as the school hoping for donations. [/quote]

So not true.  Start running those calculators and wait until your EFC comes back at 100% like ours does.  Thank heavens for in-state VA schools.  I don't know when you went to your "lottery school" but even when I went to mine, my parents had to file extensive paperwork to prove demonstrated financial need and I got some loands.  I don't know any "rich" students at lottery schools who are getting big merit scholarships.[/quote]

You just don’t know them. It’s not something that’s readily shared. We told NO one. Not friends not family not other students. The only way I found out was two very privileged students talking who thought “everyone” was going for free. (Back when I was in school) I certainly would not discuss this financial status with anyone today. My DCs are after all smart: they know better than to share this information. [/quote]
