Would you cross Princeton off the college list after seeing a price near $94,000 a year? What if your family’s actual cost could be very different?

Princeton says it uses grants rather than required loans to meet demonstrated financial need. That means the school reviews a family’s finances before calculating what parents may be expected to pay.

The number to compare is the estimated net price after financial aid.

Before removing an elite college from consideration, look at:

• How the school calculates financial need

• Which income and assets it reviews

• How much grant aid may be available

• What your family could pay across four years

Admission to Princeton is highly selective, but the published cost shouldn’t answer the affordability question on its own.

Hear Brock Jolly explain why a $94,000 sticker price may not reflect your family’s college cost in the full episode of Little-Known Secrets of Paying for College: https://bit.ly/4iiLZdW

Does asset positioning mean hiding money from a college? No, it means understanding how your finances, your child’s academic profile, and each school’s aid policies fit together.

Your child may qualify for need-based aid at one school, merit-based aid at another, or neither. From there, your family can decide how savings, income, scholarships, and loans may cover the remaining cost.

There’s no single college funding method for every family.

Can a single parent who’s been saving for college still qualify for need-based aid? Could asset positioning affect what the family pays?

One mother worried that college was out of reach, even though she’d been saving. After reviewing her finances and aid options, her son completed college without student debt, and she avoided college debt too.

Every family’s circumstances are different, but the sticker price may not reveal every available option.

How much college can your family realistically afford?

Before buying a home, most people determine what fits their budget. Yet families often build a college list before understanding what each school could cost after financial aid and scholarships.

By the time the financial aid offer arrives, the student may already be emotionally committed to the school.

College planning should consider both where a student can get accepted and which options the family can afford without taking on unmanageable debt or sacrificing other financial goals.

Do you know what your family can comfortably spend on college?

What happens when your child’s dream college costs $95,000 a year?

Families may spend years helping students prepare for admission through advanced classes, test preparation, athletics, leadership, and volunteer work. But getting accepted is only half of the college planning process.

Before applications are submitted, families also need to understand college costs, financial aid, scholarships, and how much debt may be required.

The goal isn’t to limit a student’s dreams. It’s to help them pursue those dreams without leaving the student or family with unaffordable debt.

When did college affordability become part of your family’s conversation?

Does choosing the "perfect" college major matter as much as people think?

Not always.

The bigger financial risk may be taking six years to earn a four-year degree because of changing majors or transferring schools.

We explain why finding the right college fit can be more important than finding the "perfect" major on day one.

Would your child still choose that college if they knew what the student loan payment would be after graduation?

That's a conversation many families never have until it's too late.

Choosing a college isn't only about getting accepted. It's about understanding how tuition, student loans, and career choices fit together long after graduation.

Your child's biggest college expense may not be tuition; it may be the debt that follows graduation. Brock explains why student loan debt can affect far more than a monthly payment. It can shape career choices, financial flexibility, and the opportunities available after college.

What if your financial aid offer is lower than you expected?

Sometimes, the next step is simply asking another question.

In this clip from Little-Known Secrets of Paying for College, Brock shares how one family compared financial aid offers, referenced the school's own Net Price Calculator estimate, and asked the college to review the award.

The school may not have volunteered additional aid, but because the family asked, the outcome changed.

If you're comparing college financial aid offers, this is an important reminder that the first number isn't always the final conversation.
