lspf72, definitely consider state schools. But realize that some of the top state schools are just as hard to gain admission to as an out-of-stater as Tufts, such as UVa and UNC-CH. Michigan and William & Mary are a bit easier. Also consider that many private schools offer merit aid and these can equate to perhaps a $12,000/yr tuition discount. You need to apply to many of these to see if any pan out and usually you need good SAT scores. If this is still too steep, then look at state schools in your own state.

Lastly, maybe a consultant can help you arrange your finances so you you qualify for aid.
