[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A warning re: merit money tied to GPA. Call me a cynic but ~ the university knows grade distributions, you don't. How likely is it that your student will be able to hold-on to that merit GPA dependent scholarship? In a particular major. Who knows? You don't. They might. You certainly don't. [/quote] Watch this when you decide which offer/school to accept. Some have very generous criteria. Others seem designed to kick kids off the merit aid roster. A way to check this is to look in the College Guides (like Princeton Review) if far fewer advanced students have merit aid than freshmen. Beware of schools that base this on EACH term's gpa, vs the overall gpa![/quote]
