<p>Thanks keylyme. That’s good to know that you have seen variable amounts and they take your situation into account. It’s going to be a struggle if we don’t get any FA and are paying 38-44,000 dollars out of pocket as a full pay family. I was worried we would then get a letter on top of that asking for a large amount. I am willing to contribute what I can afford which as you mentioned will probably by more after my son graduates (hopefully if he is accepted! ) than during his time at whichever school.</p>
