[quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous]There are a few schools that offer merit aid with at least a ACT of X and do consider the superscore in that determination... so maybe not for admission, but for school funding.[/quote][/b] My DS received two offers from schools to which he was not applying because the schools had bought a list of - say Christian males in zip code ____ with ACT scores over 32. When we said DS had received a composite 36, there was a rustling of papers and then a higher offer. They offered $28K each (identical offers). But the schools were virtually unknown and did not have the departments DS wanted. Even with the $28K, the total cost was higher than UVA, so he went state and is very happy with his decision.[/quote]
