theorymom, We are paying a lot to send s to Grinnell–a lot more than some of the other LACs because he got less merit aid at Grinnell than at some of his other options. I am pretty thrifty, but I think the money is well spent.

Also, keep in mind if you are not eligible for financial aid, Grinnell costs significantly less than some other top LACs-- Carleton’s COA will be over $50K this year; Grinnell will be $5K less at $45,000. In addition, Grinnell gives out way more merit aid than Carleton–it gives merit aid to many more students and gives way more per student.
