[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your DC have extended time? What % of kids in class have them? If no to first and high percentage to second, then difficult unless your DC managed to still be top 1% of class.[/quote] My kid wasn’t in the top 1% of her class and she received a lot of merit aid. She had a 1540 SAT and 4.2 GPA, 9 APs. OP: if your child is above the top quartile in stats at the college in question, your kid has a decent shot at schools who offer aid. Check the common data set and it will tell you the number of kids who receive non-need based financial aid AND the average award.[/quote] Ding! 1540 SAT. That certainly impacts merit aid.[/quote]
