momwith3-You're absolutely right, I guess it would be helpful to know how actual aid compares to what people were expecting when they ran numbers on one of the website calculators showing institutional methodology. There's a difference of about $18,000 for me between FAFSA estimate and the "institutional methodology estimate" so I shouldn't be shocked if a private school expected me to pay $18,000 over my FAFSA EFC.

I'm sorry about your husband's job. SUNY Buffalo is really popular at my kids' hs; I'm feeling guilty about letting my daughter look at non-SUNYs because so many of our wealthier neighbors' kids love Buffalo!
