<p>Do u think someone with a family income around $200,000 would receive some type of financial aid even if it’s a very small amount?</p>
<p>Honestly, it’s a complicated equation. As I’ve said before, there are many other factors beyond income that can matter much much more. Home value, amount of money in the student’s name vs. parents’, and amount saved. Try to look at some calculators for this kind of stuff.</p>
<p>That said, a family with income of $200,000 usually has a house value that falls into a certain range, and usually has a certain amount saved for the kid’s education. You’re not going to get any financial aid in that range. (Though don’t overlook the financial “aid” that everyone qualifies for: somewhat reduced-rate delayed payment student loans (certainly a better deal than home or auto loans) and tax benefits for full-time students.)</p>
