Anyone have experience applying for first year high school / BS and first year college at the same time for siblings? The decision letters don’t match up - high school comes first weeks before knowing where older sibling will go and if any aid received. Advice or thoughts?
Are you asking about one sibling going to private high school, and one going to college…or two going to college?
Please clarify.
Yes @thumper1 . One going into 9th grade (Private high school/boarding school) and one going to college, first year freshman.
It sounds like the high school doesn’t take college costs into consideration when calculating their financial aid. Colleges may not consider the cost of boarding school either. Schools have to spread their financial aid money around so most don’t take discretionary spending into account.
