[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for the above schools, anyone not above 1500 SAT get merit? Say, mid to high 1400s? Or is it 1500+ or forget about merit?[/quote] These aren’t state schools. This isn’t like Mizzou where they provide a helpful chart for GPA/SAT and you see what you’ll get in merit. If you are talking selective schools, they are more holistic and you aren’t going to find a chart with thresholds. For instance, my class of 2021 student didn’t have stats/ECs nearly as impressive as the PP’s kid (wow!) but did great on the ACT and still was offered $10K in merit aid from Brandeis (vs. $15K for PP’s kid). Short version, as others have told you, you can’t count on or expect any merit money from the better schools. It’s a crap shoot. [/quote]
