<p>D got accepted to one of the NYC private schools. Bittersweet news in that the FA award is not as much as we hoped for. Should we appeal to the school for more aid? What loan options are available for K-12 private ed?</p>
<p>Depending on school policy, you should be able to ask the school to “review” or “take another look” at the FA award, if you really feel you can’t swing it. We did that with one of GG’s schools last year, and they did offer more. We provided them with a monthly household budget, which I believe is the standard practice in the “please take another look” situation. </p>
<p>As for loans, you might look into [prepGATE</a> k-12 education loans](<a href=“http://prepgate.com%5DprepGATE”>http://prepgate.com) - they are the “big name” in ed loans for k-12.</p>
