My daughter applied and was accepted to a number of “meet-need” colleges (for 2018), Wellesley among them. The expected cost to us would have been in the middle of the pack among those schools.
Thank you all for taking the time to respond to me. We have quite a bit of thinking to do.
Thank you again
As stated above, financial aid packages can vary pretty widely among meets need colleges, even if the schools don’t include loans in their packages. For example, even though Brown did not include loans in S19’s FA package, their total aid offer was much less generous than those of several other colleges to which he was admitted.
