[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're a two earner house, each making about 100K in the DC area. Modest suburban house, two cars purchased used. Thrifty but not penny pinching lifestyle. From a paying for college perspective, it almost seems like one of us should quit our job and be a stay at home parent. Am I missing something?[/quote] Respectfully, yes. You are in the top 5% of US earners. https://statisticalatlas.com/United-States/Household-Income I know you don't feel rich, but you are certainly affluent compared to the other applicants. These are the raw facts colleges have to deal with. 95% of their prospects earn less than you, and half earn less than 1/4. Yes it sucks but please tell me how else it could possibly be? [/quote]
