<p>I believe our expected family contribution is from about $7,500 to $8,500 per year and since MHC is about $50,000 with tuition and room and board, being given a FA package worth only $30,000 would not work. </p>
<p>I really want to go to MHC (and apply via early decision), but if this is the case I will not be able to. I have also done some searching on CC and and coming to realize that ED is probably not the best bet for me, or anyone for whom FA is a significant factor.</p>
