[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She should look at liberal arts colleges that give merit aid. You might be able to get close to what the state schools cost and she could have smaller classes. [/quote] I second this. We don't qualify for FA, and DC applied to (among other schools) a couple of less selective SLACs with history of good merit aid. The cost to attend these schools is equivalent to in-state, and I have no doubt that DC would get a fine education at either one. Get a book from the library and create a spreadsheet. It will take a little time, but it will pay off for your daughter. Sounds like she will excel at a SLAC. Good luck![/quote]
