[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS goes to Grinnell, he said most students are either poor enough to get a lot of aid, or wealthy enough to swing full-pay or close to it. There's some in the middle that I assume have saved as they only provide need based aid according to the EFC. Iowa kids get an automatic 12k per year but there's no merit aid.[/quote] Actually, as you can see on page 19 of the Common Data Set, Grinnell awarded merit aid to 38 students admitted for Fall 2016: http://web.grinnell.edu/institutionalresearch/webdocs/GC_CDS_1617.pdf[/quote] Almost all of those are the Iowa kids who automatically get a merit scholarship plus a handful of national merit scholars that get $2000 They do award a very small number (like 1-2) merit scholarships but even those have a component of need and are not strictly "if you score X you get Y dollars"[/quote]
