[quote=Anonymous]^^ PP, and meant to say Davidson has become Greek Heavy. Also, add that Richmond is a reach. They don’t spread merit out (480 kids were full pay in 2019-2020 and 88 got merit aid) and they are very Southern. Greek, frat, etc Tulane could be a great school, but there is just an unbelievable amount of alcohol use. Also realize that some schools use merit money as tuition discounting, and almost every kid who is full pay will get something (Oberlin is one) And, some are more traditional merit, and give merit aid just to exceptional students (Davidson). I mean, your kid should try for the Davidson scholatprships if that’s what she wants. But make sure she is realistic. You also need to talk to your DD and get a read on whether she wants a more Southern Greek feel or not. Most kids are not neutral on that and your list has some very Southern, boozy Greek schools and some not. [/quote]
