[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is tough OP. Smaller and lower ranked privates may offer you merit, but they start out at $80K+ so $20K in merit doesn’t bring the COA down enough for you. Your state schools almost always offer the best cost.[/quote] This. My kid is a decent student (top 20%) and with a high SAT score (1500). Got decent merit at some out of sate flagships and private but these are still 40K+ which is still 10K more than instate flagship and 20K more than instate non-flagship. [/quote]
