[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4.0 uw 36 ACT 5s on all AP exams this year got accepted to an Ivy, top SLAC, 2 T10s and 3 T20s... not a SINGLE one offered any merit aid (no matter what their website said). We don't qualify for any need-based FA. He did write emails to a few schools after acceptance, basically said nicely: your are SOL. Full-freight $90k/year. I find you have to go lower, lower---he was offered $25k year for 5 years from a T60 school. And he got into all top in-state schools. [/quote] Well mine is at an ivy and got into multiple T10s and also got a full COA merit scholarship at a T25….unhooked kid full pay/did not apply for aid since not close to the cutoff income. The “named” nationally know. merit scholarships are rare at top schools but they do happen. Ivies do NOT have merit , just need, but other top schools do. Some people receive them. [/quote]Which school?[/quote]
