[quote=Anonymous]You need to check out college confidential and other sources to get an idea which schools give good merit $$. I think it's generally true (was true in our case) but the easier the school was to get into, the more merit aid our kids got (no FA). So make a long list of colleges that meet the general criteria. Maybe put them in USNWR rank order and work your way down the list. And keep an open mind. At some point hopefully you'll hit a school that DD likes that give a nice $$ package. It may take some work and you may have to apply to more schools than you thought. (But getting big $ from BC, GTown, Villanova, Fordham is not likely, IMO) [/quote]
