Before you embark on this process, you need to have THE MONEY TALK with your parents. For many students, the price tag alone is the single deciding factor in choosing the school. If your parents say ‘money’s no object’ (meaning they will pay the $200K+) fabulous. But if money IS even a bit of a concern, you need to be aware of it, and your parents need to explore FA options, loans, etc. You certainly don’t want to fall in love with a school, and get accepted, only to find that it’s not affordable to your family. You read about this happening here on CC, and it’s no fun for anyone to go through.
