<p>Thank you, both your responses were helpful. Actually, I did contact the Duke financial aid office and they just redirected me to the Collegeboard’s Net Price calculator with the disclaimer that that cannot be used to reflect actual financial aid. I told them about my special assets/income situation too. Sigh, I feel like they won’t look into this seriously until the time comes when I hopefully am accepted and I enter the process. So far, I think I’m just going to apply RD and hope that I get it!!</p>
