How to Convince My Parents That Some Schools Are Actually Generous With Aid?

<p>*Will your mom let you live at the school where she is a professor? My daughter goes to a college that is only 15 minutes away. She got a great scholarship and we are able to swing her living at school, *</p>

<p>The college my mom is a professor at will give me a 60 percent discount, which knocks the tuition per year down to $2,000. The problem is it’s way too close to home.</p>

<p>Which school is this? </p>

<p>Does it have your majors?</p>

<p>Living on campus at your mom’s school is probably not much of an option unless R&B costs about $5500 per year (a student loan). You’re limited by the fact that your mom will only pay $2500 per year…which is about the balance of tuition after your mom’s prof discount.</p>
