[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think if you move, you should make it clear to your kids early on that their college options are limited to public Virginia schools (or colleges that are equivalent in cost after four-year guaranteed non-loan financial aid). We're Virginia residents and this was the stipulation that we gave our kids. I wasn't going to let them disregard a great $30K school so that they could go to a similar one across the country for $60K. [/quote] That's a silly restriction. You can ask them to consider costs, but it's possible to get merit aid that makes some private schools the same or less than even in state options.[/quote] Merit aid is MUCH less available/common than many on DCUM seem to think. A lot of colleges have zero “merit aid”.[/quote]
