[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"We paid private school tuition for 14 years so certainly wouldn't have suddenly cut it off for college. I really can't imagine people with means suddenly saying - hey you can go to swanky private schools so we can put the sticker on the car, but if you don't get into a college of a certain rank so we can add that sticker then sorry, you are on your own." [b]Crazy, isn't it? My next door neighbors paid for Holton Arms, but then told their dd she could apply only to VA state schools. WTF[/b]?[/quote] This view assumes that the point of private school is to get the student into Ivies or the like. For many parents however, the choice of private school is not a means to an end - it is about the experience in the here and now. Assuming that your neighbors are of this view, their approach makes perfect sense. (I'll also note that VA state schools are nothing to sneeze at.)[/quote]
