<p>I don't think there is anyway that I could afford private school. Because i think my parents make to much to get aid, so about what amount of money would be to much to get aid assuming there was no other real factors to be considered and it was a 4 person family with 1 other in college.</p>
<p>Too many variables, no single answer. Parent's income and assets, and student's income and assets all play into the formula. Try the EFC calculator:</p>
<p>If the Expected Family Contribution equals or exceeds the full cost of the college you're considering, you're probably not going to be eligible for needs-based financial aid.</p>
<p>also keep in mind that the EFC calculator is only an optimistic prediction. Most of the time colleges will not be as lenient; however, it won't be drastically far from what the calculator predicts. Take everything with a grain of salt</p>
