Thanks for your honesty, but wow. Given that you need financial aid in the first place this seems like a fair amount and savings. We are full pay and I’d love to pay $10k less just because. Honestly, your response is why I don’t contribute to financial aid and earmark our contributions to other school needs that benefit all students and staff.

This is why parents view those who use financial aid as swindlers. The fraud is rampant.

Your abuse of the English language is worse than any of these people’s abuse of financial aid. It isn’t “fraud” to apply for financial aid, get an offer of $10k, and turn it down. It isn’t fraud to apply at all. The schools even encourage it.

The commenters here are extremely weird.

The fraud is there. Audit the income tax returns and financial statements/disclosures. It is there.


Like a church pastor driving a Ferrari. It is obvious.

For all FA? Whose returns and disclosures? Have you seen these documents? All of them? Why would you have seen them? Can you produce them?

You sound like your head is under a rock. Totally oblivious.

You are completely devoid of substance. I’m starting to wonder if you’ve ever even sent your kids to private school.

You are either not paying attention or involved in the con.

So you have nothing to support your claims. Unsurprising.

There are plenty of examples if you read through this board. FA families who are members of pricy country clubs, who purchase brand new $100k+ vehicles, who take regular international vacations, who own second homes, whose own $4M primary homes, and so on. It really couldn’t be more obvious.

Lol your evidence is unspecified anonymous comments on DCUM. Oooh boy time to get off the internet.

You are being unreasonable if you want me to single out individuals on this board. Anyone who is informed on the parents and families at their school notices this stuff. We see this stuff happening at our school, as well as other parents posting about it on DCUM.

Anonymous posts on an open internet message board are worthless.

If you can’t back up your posts, they are just as worthless. No one can just take your word for it.

At the very least, name your school. That might get you a bit of credibility.

It is not just one school. It is the majority of them.

Why should anyone believe you?

Just look out for it at your own school.
