[quote=Anonymous]Yes. But it varies with the school. The state schools my son applied to did not distinguish between financial and merit. You have to do the FAFSA even if you are dripping in money. My kid got merit from 3 of them and all of the schools sent a formal financial aid letter. Looks very sad with simply the unsubsidized staffords and ginormous parent plus. One of the two privates distinguished between financial and merit. I box for merit, and not for financial. They called to confirm I meant to do that, which was nice. My kid got a big merit aid amount. The other private screwed up everything (early action v regular, honors application), including aid. Fortunately he had decided not to go there. [/quote]
