[quote=Anonymous]My son had similar stats and got into several schools on the list. I will warn that merit is very unlikely for anything in-state. He got $20-$23/year from private universities (including a few on your list) but minus the high GPA to match the ACT, our seesaw kids aren't really in contention for the top merit for the schools you're looking at. You may also find that Honors program acceptance isn't a sure thing despite the high score; my son got Honors at a few but the GPA was again a problem. He's happily enrolled at one of the state universities (with a little bit of merit) on your list that is really a perfect fit, so try to get those visits in. [/quote]
