Can we rely on net price calculators?

So how the grants based on merit will be estimated? also if we have more loan to pay off, will we get more grants though the household income is more than 250k?

Your loans/mortgages aren’t usually a consideration unless they’re for large medical debts. Having a big mortgage is typically seen as a personal choice.

Grants are based on need.

Scholarships are based on merit (altho some Ivys call their need-based grants “scholarships”)

Which schools are you looking at? Some schools don’t give any merit scholarships at all.
