I know people like the OP, who did not realize how little in financial aid they would get, and how little each parent would be willing to contribute. In the end he accepted the high price college, declined his financial safety, and then could not enroll in the high price college due to lack of money, and is now in a community college.

I understand @mom2collegekids frustration, that this kid is hoping for financial aid, and not being realistic, and not having the conversations with both sets of parents that he should be having.
