Sometimes a big state university simply has the resources that a Williams or an Amherst won't have.

I have heard that Temple University in Philadelphia has tons of merit aid -- Isn't that Catholic?

Temple does have amazing merit aid. With very good grades and high scores you will get full tuition. With good grades/scores you may get $18,000 in merit aid. (All merit aid info is on their website) It's also urban, diverse, large and has a good business school. It's a state school (not catholic) so even without merit aid it's less expensive than most private schools (about 25,000 OOS).

not liking their reviews http://www.studentsreview.com/PA/TU_comments.html

not the OP...DD is a junior...

There is no perfect school. No where.

I can't seen to find the program that you're talking about. Could you provide a link?

I did find this interesting program though.
