[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived in Tulsa for a few years, and the University of Tulsa drew in a lot of students from the Saint Louis. They have very strong merit, even for rich kids. (I know of a surgeon's kid who got a full-ride!). University of Arkansas and University of Oklahoma are strong choices, too. /// Indiana might be a good choice with Butler University (strong merit), so might be Purdue/Indiana. /// University of Kansas and Kansas State are strong options, too.[/quote] Agree with this. Add Iowa State, Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Texas Tech. I’ve visited all of these. Don’t know about merit aid at Indiana or Purdue, but def merit aid at all others. Check the small print, as sometimes the merit aid is given in addition to a waiver of the out-of-state tuition. According to current scholarship charts showing what out-of-staters get, your kid would get $13,000 per year at Oklahoma State. At Texas Tech, you would pay the in-state rate for tuition AND get about $11,000 or $13,000 per year(depending in unweighted gpa). All of the colleges mentioned here & in previous post are reachable in a half-day’s drive. Check them out & see how nice they are. [/quote]
