[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Saving in 529 from birth plus grandparents help. No scholarships = sucks, and no funds for grad school. The caps make no sense. I don’t know how folks will be able to attend professional schools. It’s almost like they are trying to kill off education for everyone but the elites. [/quote] Not true! My state has 3 great schools that are under $30k all in. A kid can earn $10-12k to contribute yearly during their summer breaks/winter/spring break work. Get a Pt job of 10 hours/week while in school to add spending money. Kid takes the $5.5k in fed loans. That leaves $12-13k to pay for. Parents can help or could have saved to have the 40-50k TOTaL this is over 4 years. Or you search merit and find a place that costs less or do duel entry in hs or start at CC. There are literally thousands of good schools to attend, just not the top 50-60[/quote]
