[quote=Anonymous]There are a few top schools that offer merit - you can find this on their websites. But, it's either tiny amounts or so competitive as to be absurd to rely upon. Best to pretend it doesn't exist. As for whether top undergrad for full pay is worth it, that depends entirely on a bunch of individual factors, such as major/field of study and family financial situation. Most privates in the top 50 cost about the same. For many kids, the choice isn't Harvard vs state u, it's (for example) WashU/Rice/Emory/CMU/TUfts sort of school vs state U. Not worth the cost of borrowing huge amounts, but if the money is sitting in a 529, why not. It just depends. There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question.[/quote]
