[quote=Anonymous]I have a different story to tell - we saved for our 2 kids from birth to the tune of $1000 a month starting in the late 90s. We had over $400,000 saved and they could easily go anywhere. Our oldest got into all the same mid tier schools you describe - Tulane, NE, Bucknell, Colgate, Hamilton - literally every school they applied to except UvA where they were rejected. And at the end of the day we realized that grad school was way more important. Our kids went to VA public colleges- had amazing experiences and we paid for both to go to top tier LAW and Grad programs. The ability to graduate debt free from a top Law school/Med School/grad program IS life changing. Graduating with debt and 4 years of anxiety trying to keep up with peers at Colgate or Tulane - not so much. They offer no leg up on employment fresh out of school. And with debt? You should have heartburn. [/quote]
