We to put our college bill on a ten month payment plan and with the $25k scholarships he received, the monthly bill was very managable. He originally was responsible for the tuition part of the bill, but on moving off campus soph year we took on the tuition part and he picked up the r/b share. It worked out a bit to his advantage that way.

An we never had any buyers remorse with the choice he made. He has been a happy camper all four years, has received a great education and wandered into a career path that he loves is very excited about.

If your child is really happy, and doing really well, you won't mind the bill.

Watching your kid "grow wings" is priceless.

yes, "if your child is really happy, and doing really well" then it seems all worth it.
s is starting in the fall and this going away to school is totally new to me. I'm beginning to feel both kinds of pain and lots of angst already building up.
