[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s not donut hole.  That’s a comfortable family. The rest of our kids go to state schools. [/quote]

This. If you have sticker shock, but the ability to pay you aren't really a donut hole. [/quote]

Ability to pay when that ability means constant struggle, isn’t really comfortable.

Families with more than one kid and $250-300k don’t get financial aid.  Paying $180-200k/year for kids’ tuition isn’t easy.[/quote]

You save starting at birth, consider your spending and live way below your means.  [/quote]

We did that, and we still do that. We had around $150k HHI when our kids were born, and we've only recently gotten close to $250k HHI. We've had significant medical expenses in recent years that fortunately weren't catastrophic, but did impact our ability to save for college.

My kid just got into BC. We are delighted and very proud. They offered us loans only. We are going to continue living below our means, and send DC to a highly-regarded option that costs less than half of this. [/quote]

Did you note your medical expenses in css? You might appeal on that basis....[/quote]
