[quote=Anonymous]Many schools give merit aid and its true that it tends to be schools that are trying to recruit more competitive students. But it isn't necessarily a step down. DD got merit aid at her first choice school. While she had the credentials to apply to ivys (who knows if she would have gotten in, always a crap shoot) she had no interest. There are a lot of good reasons to avoid the ivys. She applied ED to a SLAC that is very strong in an area she's interested in and received merit aid. I don't think her school is on the College Confidential list, which isn't comprehensive. Better to start with the schools your DC is interested and check them out individually as to whether they give merit aid.[/quote]
