10. Bunching

All three aid formulas give a break to families with more than one child attending college at once. Suppose, for example, that you have income of $160,000 and assets of $900,000 and the formula dictates that you can afford to spend $80,000 a year on college. If you have one student in a $55,000 school you get nothing. If you have two you get $30,000.

Strategy: Persuade your oldest to take a gap year after high school. That gambit could be worth up to $55,000.
