[quote=Anonymous]I am OP. This was a school DC picked. And one that we specifically looked at because it met all the criteria, including a high rate of merit. But I think there was a difference in seeing…oh… 68% of non need students get merit and then realizing well…you might not be one of them—even if you are high stats for the school. It’s not a school where they really NEED applicants but nor is it an Ivy League. It’s in that middle tier. We just started having second thoughts because it is so much money. And yes. We can do it. But it’s not like a drop in the bucket. It’s still a lot.

Personally, there are some schools I would be happy to pay full price for simply because of the prestige factor. I don’t think I’m alone in that. I think the number of people who really don’t care where their money goes is pretty small.

Ultimately, we’ve decided to ED and hope DC won’t be “punished” for that because it is their first choice school, meets everything they were looking for, good location, and is at least 75% of stats. Maybe I’ll report back in December. It honestly feels good just to decide and not obsess over it. [/quote]
