[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter got $40,000 ($10,000 a year) at University of Florida. We were Florida residents so she also got the Bright Futures Scholarship.  She was a National Merit Scholar finalist.  She graduated last year and is teaching in DC!  I have a son at Univ. of Colorado.  $8,000 a year merit.  I have another at Ole Miss.  Full ride.[/quote]

Nice![/quote]

Thanks  :)   Those three were our easy kids.  We have one that enlisted in the Air Force right out of high school.  We are super proud of her.  She wasn't a great student, but she has turned out to be a really good Airman.  We're hoping she'll be more ready for college when she gets out.  The military will pay which is nice.[b]  Our youngest wants to go to MIT.  He had better pray for merit aid.[/b][/quote]

MIT doesn't award any merit aid.[/quote]

But it does give out crazy amounts of financial aid.  33% of the freshman class is tuition free.  56% get need based aid. The average amount of need-based aid is $43,000
