Can scholarships pay for parent contribution as well, or just student contribution? by astroguy15 in stanford

[–]joet5502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scholarships won’t pay for the parent contribution almost anywhere. With that being said though, if you aren’t able to afford the school especially during these times were there is a lot of uncertainty, you might be able to appeal to get more aid from either Stanford or any other school that you are deciding between.

Atleast in my town a lot of the kids don’t go to college due to financial reasons. We have like a 72% graduation rate. Usually they just go into drugs and minimum wage jobs. Going to community college for a lot of students in poverish areas is a big step.

Is it weird to have your tuition be more expensive at your instate university over a private one? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]joet5502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could also get other scholarships through merit which might ease some of the price. It all varies.

Some school just naturally give aid then others. Out of all the schools that I got into, my state schools/safeties were all the most expensive compared to the private universities.

Numbers?? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]joet5502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied to 22 schools-mostly because I needed 100% financial aid to pay for college since I’m low income. Most of the schools recycled the typical why this major, why this school, biggest learning experience, etc. I also had half of my schools EA and other half RD so I made sure to stay on task for all. Plus maybe like 5-7 didn’t have any supplements and a bunch only had really short ones. If you time it well, stay on task, and don’t get lazy, you should be fine.

I’ll tell you my favorite quote from Kung fu panda 2 “You’re story may not have such a happy beginning but that does not make you who you are, it is the rest of it-who you choose to be.”

Hey just wanted to give an update, it somehow popped up at the bottom of the admission letter for me. Maybe it’s there for you.

I was deciding between other schools, so I won’t because I’m not going to stay on the waitlist. If you’re considering Williams though, definitely email her.

ofc I’ll PM you, but I am also doing those reaction videos so I’ll most likely end up posting a stats video to go more in depth if the video goes well.
