[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous]My DD got lots of merit at schools she didn't want to go to. [/quote][/b] This was our experience.[b] DC had the stats for top schools. No merit aid offered anywhere. [/b]But two colleges reached out to her because she had the stats, ACT scores that they wanted to raise their rank. They buy the lists they want from ACT and College Board and then solicit those students who have something they want. But they were colleges you've never heard of and didn't offer anything in DC's intended major.[/quote] With a few exceptions, "top" schools don't offer merit aid.[/quote] Last month my DS was offered $30,000 a year in merit aid from a top 20 college so a few do offer it.
