[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD liked Dickinson a lot, but even $20k off that tuition leaves a mighty big bill. She ended up declining and chose another school that appealed more, and gave heftier merit.[/quote]

Oh, congrats! Do you mind mentioning which school or any others that your family considered? We're trying to put together a college list for our twins who like LACs in PA and the Midwest. Thanks![/quote]

DP but look at Juniata. Our son was seriously considering it and after merit aid the total cost is about 34k. He was interested in looking at Dickinson but I didn’t think it was worth the price. His older brother got a big merit award at Dickinson but it was way too pricey compared to the other schools he was accepted to. Anyway, I was impressed with the students and staff we met at Juniata. It was my first choice for him but he decided it was too small. The big downside is the area is very rural. There are other small schools that offer really generous merit aid in PA like Washington and Jefferson (outside Pittsburgh) and Chatham (in Pittsburgh - gorgeous campus). While we liked Gettysburg, it is similarly priced to Dickinson. [/quote]
