[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op. What is needed for merit scholarship? [/quote] DP: Any good student can find merit. You simply need to go to a target or Safety school (not a reach). My 1220, 3.5UW, no AP kid got 35% of tuition (for all 4 years) at 2 schools ranked in the 80s and got 75% of tuition for one ranked about 120-130. My 1500/3.96UW/8AP kid got 75% of tuition at CWRU for all 4 years---they turned it down, but if they had needed the money, that is where they would be (it would have been ~$30K/year total). Had we needed the money, they could have gotten a lot more merit at many schools in the 75-100 range So merit exists outside the T30 or so schools, you just need to go where they want your kid, and where your kid is at/above 75% for the school stats. Then the money will likely flow [/quote]
