<p>granipc, my son is sure to get accepted to UM in a few weeks and has already been accepted at Michigan State honors (same as UT and TAMU around here). He has also applied to a bunch of out of state schools like UT… (would do Petroleum Engineering there)</p>
<p>People constantly ask him where he is going to college an he just sighs and says “probably Michigan”. He pretty much knows if it comes down to $15k a year vs. $60k a year he’ll be going instate. </p>
<p>I am dreaming one of his “high falutin” school choices will match instate prices to keep the piece around here. /?Unfortunately?/, we make enough money to not qualify for any aid, but not enough to pay full price without living a threadbare retirement.</p>
