We make 200K and have one in private. We did not apply for FA. I know I can make the numbers work, so I wouldn’t feel right applying.

Same and we got off the waitlist. Granted, we have 2 kids in private, but it was a very welcomed surprise! A reminder that it never hurts to ask.

We make the same and got no aid last year. It’s doable for us with some sacrifices. If it’s a priority crunch the numbers and make sure and don’t just knee jerk it.

Not asking for your opinion or judgement. I just know that people have applied for FA at more and less than 300 and was letting people know.
Thank you for letting us know - it is helpful.

Maybe the FA director would be willing to give you some insight?

OP. Two kids but only one applying for private. One in public. No circumstances.
