[quote=Anonymous]We fell more or less into this demographic as well. DD1 opted for a full-tuition scholarship at a school a step down from her stats (for example offer at UVA but wanted something urban), but in a desired location. That meant we had some leftovers for grad school, which she is doing at a top school with a middling scholarship, COL help from us, and loans. We are paying full freight at an OOS state flagship for DD2. She likes the environment, but is seriously considering a transfer closer to home because she doesn't find it worth it. I would welcome that, if she so chooses because she will likely want some kind of grad or professional school. 
I feel like at our income level, it is all on a sliding scale. You take in the school, your other options, whether grad school/what kind of grad schol is on the table, preference, and make the best decision you can. The only objectively wrong answer, in my opinion, is paying way too much for something that doesn't get you somewhere better than much less expensive options.
