Even if you can’t get a financial aid discussion going with your GC, they probably have stats on what schools kids from your high school end up at. That would give you insight into what people are able to afford. Just from our experience our GC’s knew absolutely nothing about why people did or didn’t choose various schools, nor did they have any access to the FA offers. But when we looked at where people were going the financial bias was clear.

If you have access to Naviance, or a similar system that tracks where graduates get admitted to and matriculate, that can help you suss out this information, as well.
