[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your daughter is so very gifted, OP, money will not be a factor in her college decision. I say this as someone who grew up poor in rural PA. My parents paid almost nothing for me to attend Harvard. I was offered generous aid and full rides to other schools as well. Maybe you should schedule a meeting with your daughter's college counsellor to go over how this works. [/quote] This is not how it works. Harvard gives no money for being gifted. You got money because you were poor. Most top colleges offer no merit aid at all, only need- based aid.[/quote] Not to mention the odds of getting into Harvard...OP doesn't qualify for enough financial aid to make a selective SLAC as affordable as an in-state college.[/quote]
