[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Need and merit question from above ^^.  Some schools offer merit if a student has a certain GPA and SAT score, while others require essays and are very competitive. The school's website will have a scholarship link. To determine need, each school's website will have a link to their individual Net Price Calculator. You will have to input tax information, # of kids in college, etc and it will give you an "idea" if you will receive any need. All the calculators are not created equal--it depends on the school. And, if you own a business, the calculators are way off.[/quote]

Thanks. I will check out some of the calculators. Our incomes are not high by Northern VA standards, but great by others.

While DS has definitely not felt any urgency to look at schools he does want to continue his sport in college. He has expressed an interest in small to medium sized schools and his interest has picked up recently after being contacted by some coaches. A few he is interested in are Div III, which of course do not offer athletic scholarships. I'll have to make sure he is looking at other, more affordable options.[/quote]
