[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have similar budget parameters (60K/year), but live in the midwest. My daughter wants to study biology/ enviro sci / plant science. She is looking at UMN, Grinnell, Dickinson, Wisconsin, St. Olaf, Kenyon, maybe Macalaster, maybe Cal Poly. She may apply for some Ivies just to see, and that might be a different conversation, but it looks like she would have a realistic chance of keeping the above schools to within 60K, either through merit aid or reasonable OOS tuition.

If she wants Grinnell, she should consider ED.  Much easier to get in and they guarantee 20k merit to those accepted ED.  Very difficult admit if not ED. [/quote]

Are there other schools that offer automatic merit aid if you apply ED?[/quote]

St. Olaf: "Our Early Decision Commitment means that any student who applies and is admitted through Early Decision will receive a minimum of a $20,000 St. Olaf Scholarship." (https://wp.stolaf.edu/admissions/apply/faqs/#:~:text=Is%20there%20a%20financial%20incentive,Olaf%20Scholarship.)[/quote]

Thank you!! :-)[/quote]
