<p>No. That was what the service provider offered up as partial rationale for parking the money (to be removed from FASFA) until completion. She is a very focused, hard working kid, not perfect, but she’s a very good kid with decent (mostly A, some B) grades.</p>
<p>I’ll go look for the financial part of the forums and try to learn more, but it sounds like theses guys are trying to sell me a solution to an unsolvable problem, if “problem” is even the right word. </p>
<p>We actually always expected to pay full freight, and was thinking, after paying private school tuition all these years, that our expenses would even go down if she attended an in state public university. We weren’t looking for financial services, just guidance on prepping our kid to compete well in the admissions process at the better private colleges. </p>
<p>Thanks again for the feedback.</p>
