[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In short, if you are looking for significant merit $, CU Boulder is not the place.[/quote] Right? Why don't people understand that alot of schools don't give merit. Doesn't matter about stats. They just don't.[/quote] But Boulder does some merit $. I think a bunch of us are just wondering why kids with lower stats got it and ours didn’t.[/quote] Maybe it has to do with a form of yield protection — as in, they aren’t confident that a high stats kid will actually end up going there (i.e., they are likely to go somewhere more prestigious) regardless of merit aid, so they don’t want to waste the award on them. We were at JMU this weekend and they asked parents to let them know ASAP if their kid wasn’t ultimately going to attend, because they wanted to use the merit for RD kids.[/quote]
