[quote=Anonymous]To OP, are you targeting total cost 32K after all merit OR are you saying your contributions is 32K plus your child could take out another 5-7K in students loans and you have DC Tag 10K and your kid might be contributing summer earnings to cover books and spending money. If it’s the later, I think there are some East Coast/mid-Atlantic options OOS between 50-55K so modest merit of 5-10K puts it in range and starts to eliminate need for undergraduate student loans. Think UMBC, UMW, GMU and University of Delaware. I’ve also heard of slightly larger merit at UMass Amherst and Lowell brining the cost within that range or a little lower. As other posters have mentioned, the bulk of the schools where you might get the total cost of the school to 32K with merit (considering room and board is average 11-15K ) would mean looking other than East Coast like ASU, University of Utah, Alabama, University of Minnesota etc. [/quote]
