[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For donut hole families with high achieving kids this is increasingly becoming a common choice. The cost of elite private universities, which is going to top $100,000 a year soon, is a strain for many upper middle class families. Two kids. $800,000. And when you consider that the type of kid who is getting into Harvard or Duke is likely also being offered considerable merit and even full rides from their state flagships it becomes a fairly easy decision. Many families will take the free ride or the heavy discount over Harvard. And then use the savings for grad school or a down payment or whatever. That's a very reasonable choice.
