[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Can B students get merit aid[/b] or financial aid.... we are a family that makes 120-140,000 a year and worry about eligibility for financial aid. [/quote] Unlikely unless the student has something spectacular to offer that the school needs OR a 35 or 36 on the ACT in which case some third-tier colleges you've never heard of will call and offer $26K off the sticker price. In order to get merit aid, you will have to lower your expectations and try to aim for schools that need whatever particular talent or interest your child has. As to financial aid, FAFSA financial aid is unlikely but you should run the Net Price Calculators on college's webpages to see where you fall. And a lot changes from year to year so what is true one year might not be the next year. If you are an URM or first-generation, that will help[/quote]
