[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4.0 uw 36 ACT 5s on all AP exams this year got accepted to an Ivy, top SLAC, 2 T10s and 3 T20s... [b]not a SINGLE one offered any merit aid[/b] (no matter what their website said). We don't qualify for any need-based FA. He did write emails to a few schools after acceptance, basically said nicely: your are SOL. Full-freight $90k/year. I find you have to go lower, lower---he was offered $25k year for 5 years from a T60 school. And he got into all top in-state schools. [/quote] Of course not! Most schools in this tier offer aid only based on need. Everyone merits. The merit is getting in![/quote]
