[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are parents paying app fees to 20+ schools? That is insane [/quote] We held off on RD apps until we heard from ED schools, so that saved some fees for us. But, DD also did a great job of getting fee waivers. It's worth an email (probably not to reaches or high targets) to an AO to reference a visit or interview and ask about a fee waiver. Worked for Pitt and Manhattan College. Some have no fee. UMD gives waivers to NMSF. Lafayette reached out to offer a waiver (DD did interview early). Even if she had done her RD apps, we would have had more like 8 app fees than 15. As it was, she applied to 8 early but had 5 fees. Have a friend whose kid is applying to 20. They are in the 200k-300k range but have significant healthcare expenses, so they will need to see a range of FA options. [/quote]
