[quote=Anonymous]In order to get good merit aid, you typically need to be at or above that school’s 75th percentile for SAT scores and GPA. This usually means going 1-2 tiers lower than where you are capable of being admitted. For example, a kid who gets into UMCP with no merit will likely get substantial merit to Towson, West Virginia University, George Mason, etc. [/quote]
