This is something your parents should decide since it’s their money. If they can afford to pay the differential and want to do so, accept the gift, which is what it is. My son preferred an out of state public to our state schools, and though it meant more money, it was still within what we could afford to pay, so we agreed to pay it. Had he picked an unaffordable school, that would have been a whole other story. We set the prices as to what we could pay and as long as the school fit in them, we’d pay even if there were some zero cost or very low cost options in the mix. If your parents are in financial trouble, irresponsible financially, and are being truly fool hardy, you might want to reconsider.
