[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is targeting UMD but it is a borderline reach. What large publics hVe you visited that impressed you or would be similar? He us not interested in the south and UC schools would be off the table as safeties. Unsure of major so the large school with everything is appealing. Also hoping for merit to make coa similar to in-state.

Some on our radar but haven’t visited: UMN, UDelaware, Purdue…others??[/quote]

Some of the suggestions here won’t help you because the schools don’t give much merit.

What is GPA? At Pitt, student won’t get much merit to bring close to UMD’s $30k.

Look into these:

U of SC awards in-state tuition if stats are high enough 
ASU
U of Arizona
MSU—and Google their merit award chart and special offerings for residents if certain states
WVU—Google their merit award chart 
Alabama—Could be free if stats high enough
UVM
Central Michigan U

Does UDel or Purdue give much merit? I thought not.

1. Look at each school’s Common Data Set to see how much merit they tend to award to “non-need” students.

2. Use Google to look for merit award charts for big universities. Example: https://www.cmich.edu/news/details/cmu-amps-up-merit-scholarship

Are the merit scholarships for one year, or for all four?

For example, these?
