<p>I agree completely! My plan right now is to put out more apps than we had originally wanted to in order to get as many affordable offers as possible. In the Spring he/we will have to make a choice and if he really wants one of the more expensive options, he will definitely have to contribute.</p>
<p>Oh, BTW, NMTech has very cheap OOS tuition (and he may get enough merit there for it to be affordable for him) and they send kids on to grad school at an impressively high rate (they produce science and engineering PhDs at a higher rate than Yale, Stanford, JHU, Cornell, Brown, and Duke).</p>
