Do your parents not have a savings for your tuition? With that kind of income they should be able to fund your education over four years at any school, even Ivies, without any financial aid. I’m in the same boat but my parents made a promise to me a long time ago that if I could get into a strong school that required a steep tuition, they would enthusiastically pay it. Education is one of the most important investments you can make and you should try to explain to your parents that it won’t hurt them that much to fund an education at one of those prestigious universities if you can get accepted.
