[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I assume she applied to Fordham?[/quote] Well, not yet. Rising senior. That's one of her top schools - but again, affordability is an issue.[/quote] From what I've seen among DD's friends, Fordham tends to offer extremely generous aid (including merit aid) packages to certain kids, and very little or no aid to everybody else. So if your DD has good stats, and with her "geographical distribution" hook, it might be worth taking a chance. Because merit awards can be so unpredictable, a general piece of advice would be to encourage her to see positive things about every school she applies to, instead of letting her fall in love with a single, particular school.
