<p>I think there is a thread already for this, could someone point me to it?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>However, you want to run the net price calculators to check. Each school may define EFC (and therefore need) differently, and each school may have a different ESC (expected student contribution, typically between $4,000 and $10,000 per year, which ends up being the minimum net price for a student who gets maximum financial aid but no merit scholarships).</p>

<p>ahh ok. I think we must have it too easy with S1 and his school/financial aid. There was no fine print particularly to read.</p>

<p>I (maybe naively) tend to believe that a majority of the schools on the “meets need” list that dodgersmom sent the link to, aren’t tricky with their “need” calculation, although there are some schools on there that I am not familiar with.</p>

<p>As we get further along in the process, I’ll be paying more attention to the details :-). Right now I’m trying to give S2, athlete, not super academic, no intended major, a place to begin looking :-)</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
