[quote=Anonymous]Merit scholarships not need based are usually just tuition. So even a 100 percent scholarship is just tuition. Another thing my one daughter got a very generous merit scholarship but it is not inflation adjusted. It is a set amount so when tuition rises it does not rise. Finally catch lower rated schools with cash give best. St John’s University around 15 years ago briefly wanted to skyrocket up the US News ratings. They targeted A students only with high SATs and ACT scores and mailed them an offer of above a certain GPA and SAT/ACT score, free tuition all four years. A brief program but they shot way way up in ratings But no Georgetown is giving away merit giveaways. My niece her husband who is a genius took St John’s up in offer graduated debt free then went to IVY league grad school straight from college [/quote]
