[quote=Anonymous]OP, your Q is perfectly reasonable, so just ignore the grumpy troll. Do not feed it. As poster above pointed out, kids with perfect or near perfect stats do get rejected from top schools all the time. However, they sometimes get accepted. It depends on if the colleges happen to need a kid from your area with a particular major or interest or other unique skill or perspective they are lacking. You might as well try your luck at one or two top schools, since they are the most generous with financial aid. If your kid would prefer a smaller school, they can also apply to liberal arts colleges. Besides the top schools, some of the lower ranked schools are generous with merit aid to attract better students. I've had family members attend random out-of-state private institutions on full merit scholarships.[/quote]
