[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never attended one of these private schools with the massive need-based aid programs. Is it a weird dichotomy with basically only poor kids and rich kids and no real middle class? I attended a state school so there were basically all types of kids, but lots of middle class. [/quote] Aid goes to families making $250,000 so it's not like these families are poor.[/quote] Not actually poor, but a kid from a $250k family with a mortgage, multiple kids, and a need to save for retirement is going to feel "poor" next to a kid whose family can pay $400k for one kid to attend college and think nothing of it. [/quote] And? There are really wealthy people in the world sending kids to college with ease if your kid doesn't have any coping skills around this yet, they will have the opportunity to develop some in college.[/quote]
