<p>Mathmom - Our sons are, indeed, traveling in the same circles. I wish that UVM was more affordable for OOS. Great school and beautiful campus! We are also in the same boat with need based aid - will have 2 in school for 2 years, then just S for 1 year, then 2 again. Too complicated - makes good merit that much more appealing. My S is very disappointed in Northeastern’s changes to the NMF award. Best of luck to your son - I hope he ends up with some awesome- and affordable - choices.</p>
