Thanks for the replies. I have been following these threads for a few years and they have alerted me to these potential issues when using the NPCs, but not really provided concrete, school-specific answers. The home equity cap numbers are helpful.

I am guessing I will have to see what specific info I can pry out of the schools (probably not a lot), but we’ll wait to make sure the kid performs well at the camps this summer and has a good chance for an offer. If I wait until he gets an actual offer for a pre-read, he was told there is a chance he will only have a week or so to accept and I don’t like to scramble like that.

My take from others’ general comments is that none of these questions will have answers that help our situation so if my kid gets an offer we are looking at full pay. Not complaining, just planning and hoping we have the opportunity to put this type of option in the decision matrix (he will have some great D3 options with big merit aid too). Also thankful that these are the types of things we have to worry about at this time.
