With as many assurances that my concerns are unfounded - specifically that a FAO will not alter our package based on a perception that we are able to pay a higher amount since we have deferred a high percentage of income in base year - I am beginning to feel a bit more at ease and perhaps more confident to continue with our usual income deferral.

To thumper1’s point, all of the NPC we filled out took home equity and assets into consideration. Regardless, our comfort limit for tuition is $30,000 x 8 years ($240,000) for our 2 sons’ educations. We may be ignorant, or out of step, but for us, it is just so hard to imagine the benefit of spending more than $240,000 for two undergraduate degrees.
