I just want to reiterate what other people have said about asking your parents to run the net price calculators at the schools you are applying to. My husband was saying the same thing your parents are saying about how we would “find the money“ for whatever school my son was interested in and got into. However, based on advice here, we ran the net price calculators. My husband was shocked when our initial estimates for the values we put into the net price calculator spat back that we would be expected to provide $50-$60,000 per year. And, when we went back more carefully and put in the information, some of them came out at over $70,000 per year. we cannot “find” that amount of money per year.
If your parents are like my husband and I, they are thinking about college like it was 30 years ago when they went to school, and financing college is very different now. I would hate for you to be disappointed that you end up not being able to afford the school you want to go to, and have missed the opportunity to apply to schools you could afford.
Maybe they will run the net price calculators and say it is all good! But please ask them to do that.
ETA: for all my recommendation to run the net price calculators, ignore the WPI net price calculator. It is terrible, and far off from what your actual net cost is likely to be, and the financial aid office knows it. It significantly underestimates your actual net price.
