you can fill out the on-line fafsa application. it will tell you what your expected family contribution will be. The colleges take into consideration tuition, books and living expenses when calculating what the family will have to pay.
it is much cheaper to attend a community college for the first two years to get the liberals out of the way. it is also a good way for the student to transition. i share this information because i am a 40+ college student with a son attending college. i'm no expert but i have found that some people will are surprised to find they qualify for more aid than they expected.
one last thing… have the student spend ten hours a week writing essays for scholarship applications. the return will be much better than spending the same amount of time in a low paying job!
