If you don’t qualify for aid, well, Williams is over $90K. I understand, to one parent it’s worth it - but given this statement, you shouldn’t even go there because again, what do you say if you get in?

Are you willing to say - honey, sorry, we cant send you there or are you going to cave and spend well over $100K more than you anticipated.

You can run the NPC and see if there’s aid but - you have to decide up front a budget and not go above what that budget is. If it’s full pay, then fine - but then you can’t say - we’d like to stay within $60K.

So as a parent, I wouldn’t even give Williams consideration.

Don’t forget, law school may be another $300K - and where you go undergrad isn’t necessarily giving you a leg up on law school. So you need to have a budget plan - and if it truly is a budget plan, then stick to said plan.

Also, @thumper1 I’m looking at schools online and many require an audition for a BA in music.

Thanks
