At NYC competitive private that sends a lot of kids to T20 schools. His counselor's first list for him was Princeton, Yale, Gtown, Williams and then targets like Hamilton and Kenyon. 1580 SAT, top 10% of class, top in state for EC. Second kid will be looking one step below in rankings, I suspect. Still a v good student just without the EC awards.

Subject: ISO info on schools that are generous (or not) with two kids in college
Hi, I have two kids in back-to-back school years. Oldest is a junior so while I'm running all the NPCs, I'm doing it twice. One with a kid in college, then again with two kids in college.
We won't get FA for first one, but paying 90k first year and then 50k for next three -- vs 90k x 4 (or 90k x 8) -- is a meaningful number.
So far, I've found Georgetown to be the only one to offer zero break for second kid. Which really moves it off the list. But others are not a lot better. The richest schools like Princeton are really good, but what are the odds of that.
As I do this school by school, I'm wondering if anyone has any personal experience. Parents of twins or kids close in age.
Or if anyone knows of a NPC where I can just get what a range of colleges think I can pay for one or two? A tool like that would be super helpful. Really wish I could put my data in one NPC and get results from a wide variety of schools. Does that exist?
