Finances and Dorms

I told Momoko we needed to visit the financial aid booth at the University of Deleware open house. The cost for Kit Kat to live on campus, eat at the dining halls, and attend university is $40k per year. We will need muchos help to get that bill paid. It was a long walk to the financial aid booth. We took a couple breaks in the middle.

I learned a lot about the specifics of paying for college there. We need to apply to the college by December 1st for them to consider merit scholarships for Kit Kat automatically. We also need to need to fill out a FAFSA form by February 15th to see what kind of financial aid we can get. We can also look at third party scholarships online.

After financial aid, we ate some university produced ice cream. Then we took a bus back to the parking garage. The bus driver was too fast and too furious. It was still better than walking. We finished up our open house experience by visiting one of the dorms. Girls and boys live "together" in the dorms. They do not share rooms or bathrooms. But they can be living across the hall or next to each other. The room we saw was nice. It better be for $40k a year.
