I'm in that income group that totally disqualifies us from any financial assistance, but not fortunate enough to be in the higher income group where I don't care.
It's not as if I was surprised that my son would attend college, and we've been saving for this for years.
That's one thing that I really like about David Boren -- the Heritage Scholarship to help defray increased tuition cost went to all income levels. First time my kids have been able to take advantage of something! My kids didn't get the full amount but anything was better than nothing.
Sometimes I want to yell Descrimination! Having two kids in college should count for something!
