NSM, as I understand it, with the lower costs and the scholarship their son has received, his 4 years at PLU will cost far less ($68,000 I think was mentioned) than the $120,000 they are willing to pay. Also, far less than his sister's education at the same school. That is why I suggested they offer to fund additional enhancement's. He earned a nice scholarship so he is paying some of his way at PLU through that. To me, it is therefore reasonable for the parent's to offer to pick up some of the costs of whatever HE feels will enhance his time at PLU. If I read incorrectly and PLU will costs the $120,000 they offered, then of course he need to pay this on his own.
