<p>MY OPINION…if there are family financial limitations…I personally think a student should be told this up front. They surely can still apply to some schools that are more pricey…but parents should make it clear BEFORE the applications are sent that the finances have to work out for the student to attend.</p>
<p>What I would not advocate is allowing your child to just apply to any school if you have financial limits…and then tell them about those financial limitations AFTER the acceptances come in. The reality is some kids might just “adjust” their application list if they know that finances WILL be considered at acceptance time.</p>
