People need in applying to apply to a variety of schools, they need to have safety schools that are affordable, places they know that they can get in and places that they know they can afford.
Absolutely.
Some of the nation's top public schools offer very generous need-based scholarships as well, particularly to low-income families.
Not so much to those middle-income and upper-middle-income families that are making $200,000 a year, but particularly to low-income families.
Places like Michigan, UNC, Texas A&M offer very generous financial aid.
And this is really important for families to know that these schools also are going to offer generous resources.
And there are dozens of public schools that have a very low net price for low and middle income families.
And these are great colleges.
And so I think sometimes people think that they must go to a private school.
But in reality, there's great financial aid opportunities from public schools as well.
Yeah, absolutely.
Let's say you do have your heart set on an expensive private school and mom and dad can't make it work.
So a lot of schools, both public and private schools, have community college to four-year college transfer pipelines.
And so you could spend two years at a community college and then transfer to that dream school.
This is also an option, not just for financial reasons, but if you don't get into that dream school, transferring is always an option.
And so doing two years at a cheaper school and then transferring to that more expensive school is certainly a pathway that I think not as many students consider it as maybe should.
So most people aren't going to get everything covered.
There are a few, a very tiny sliver of colleges that are loan-free.
These are, again, these very wealthy Ivy League schools and their peers that don't package loans as part of their financial aid packages.
Most schools do.
