[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s with all the rude responses?

Anyway, it will help if you can give some indications of preferences with respect to class size, geography, and career ambitions beyond the biochem major. Any other color you can lend makes it easier to narrow down potential matches.[/quote]

Troll fail and/or clueless naive parent post = rude responses on DCUM

OP here, and that's sad.  I am a clueless parent.  We assumed that my kid would just be attending the state U and didn't look much higher.  It was completely unexpected that the kid would end up with such high stats.  I'm exactly the type that people should help without being jerks.  [/quote]

OP, please don’t be discouraged by the rude responses.  I have a similar NMF - quirky and looking for full rides.

There are several schools that offer full rides or full tuition + packages. Most include Honors College admission as well. My kid pursued all the below and also other schools. Purdue offered him a scholarship that makes COA $30k a year. Arizona and ASU also offered merit bringing costs to $40k+, Case Western also offered merit with COA closer to $45k

Options to look into:

Alabama 
Iowa
Missouri (full tuition)
Oklahoma (full tuition)
U South Carolina 
UT Dallas
U Tulsa
UCF
USF

Our nigh guaranteed admissions and nearly free state school is one of the schools you mentioned.  I'm starting to think that my kid should look into some competitive SLACs and otherwise be happy to just attend the state flagship honors college.  [/quote]
