[quote=Anonymous]PP. Other merit aid schools that that popped out at me, and which are also generous with merit, though perhaps less than above:

St. Olaf - a top feeder schools for bio, chem, CS, and math (17, 18, 50, 10 respectively), known for extremely generous merit, maybe not quite the same as some of the above?

Whitman - makes the cut for bio, chem, math, and physics (31, 23, 16, 25)
Hampshire (!!! surprised me!!) - bio, CS, math, physics (2, 20, 43, 13)

Grinnell offers terrific merit aid, on top of unusually generous need-based, and is high on the list for bio, chem, CS, math, and physics (10, 10, 35, 11, 11) -- basically all STEM but engineering.

Oberlin - also bio, chem, CS, math, and physics (33, 49, 39, 35, 30) -- maybe less merit than Grinnell? Not sure.

There are other schools that also make the same lists as Grinnell and Oberlin (among them Carleton, Caltech, Amherst, Swat, Williams, and MIT, maybe others); to my knowledge none offer merit aid, although they might give need-based aid to a wider range of families.

There are probably others. I'll admit that my eyes are starting to glaze over at this point.
