[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who knows aid package offered by Brown?[/quote]

Run the NPC[/quote]

This. Our aid beat the NPC for both kids.[/quote]

What does this mean?[/quote]

It means the cost of attendance was less than the net price calculator indicated (aid package was close to but more than expected). Very happy.[/quote]

Thanks. Folks on this board always ask why certain posters would apply to an expensive school if they can’t pay full freight, but experiences like yours (final package better than npc) is what makes it so hard to know what might shake out. It’s worse than buying airline tickets sigh. Glad it works out from time to time.
Congratulations to your kid![/quote]

The NPCs seem to be pretty reliable. I would for one for every college your kid is interested in. I had a spreadsheet for mine with alternate versions with and without sibling (wasn't sure what that would be this year with fafsa change, but for many css schools,  it was still a big benefit), and with different home value amounts to see how that might impact.

My oldest did RD because we were so unsure of NPC (and they announced dropping primary residence value only right before ED deadline). Can't believe she got in as a female in RD!

With 2nd, we knew NPC would be a reliable indicator, and she applied ED.[/quote]
