Thanks, Dan! Unless we get an unexpectedly-generous tuition assistance ruling, we'll need 0% APR for longer than 6 mo and it doesn't look like we could transfer remaining from the Ink to the Slate (Chase-to-Chase).
We may be able to convince the school to waive the CC fee for 50/50 payments- one at summer, one in December, in which case I'd plan on churning the Ink in Dec. There's a whole host of new contingencies with that plan, however (now I'd need 2 Inks with high-enough limit to charge half our tuition, I already have an Ink Plus from last Dec's churn- could I churn it in a year?, the school may not waive the CC processing fee and 50/50 isn't one of their default payment options, etc.)
I started to do the math on the value of different points, though, to see if there's any way it comes out ahead to accept the CC processing fee for 9 equals. Thing is, we don't really have any specific travel plans/goals for the next year or two, so I'm kind of still only haphazardly collecting points, not really knowing which will best serve us long term. Hard to align a CPP/CPM in that circumstance.
