[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fyi, Be careful about making assumptions. We earn 160 and received NO aid. From an ivy school that promises full aid to families up to 200k. We own our home and our 'assets' were deemed too high. We don't live a lavish lifestyle and drive an 8 year old honda. Yes, we have some saved for retirement and 529. But we are older (age 55/60) and this is our last kid. Seems that responsibility is a penalty. We didnt expect a lot, but thought we would get something, maybe 10? 15?. The full rejection was a surprise. So we will continue to deplete our assests amd try for aid again next year...[/quote] This is us (and with HHI even a bit lower but probably in a lower COL area). No aid. No real complaints and would not have changed our approach but it does sting just a bit. Good thing both kids got/get merit! So proud of them.[/quote] Are you saying your kids got merit discounts at a meets-need school? [/quote]
