$2,500. Wow. That'll allow a student to live indoors for 1/3rd of one year at Stanford.

Or eat for half of one year at Stanford.

Probably not cost effective for your son. The tanning sessions required will likely exceed the amount he might be granted if his grades are good enough.

Maybe you would not be so angry if you had not made so many poor choices in life like not putting away enough money to pay for your kids education.

Tell him a good education is over rated. Use yourself as an example. Obviously you've done well enough to not qualify for financial aid.
