[quote=Anonymous]My kid did a couple of years ago - she wanted to apply to 20 schools as a member of the class of 2020. She got into Pitt early and then applied to many LACs looking for merit aid. She had her own budget and used money from her summer job to apply to any random ones that she wanted to, that we weren't aware of. Coincidentally, some of those Midwestern LACs had no or waived the application fee - think Oberlin (where she wound up), Grinnell, Macalester, (if you apply early), Carleton and also some in NE like Colby, Smith, and Wellesley etc (although not all of those offer merit aid). In the grand scheme of paying for college, a few hundred bucks isn't that big of a deal (at least to our family and our kid paid herself as well), and applying to undergrad and imagining yourself at a wide range of institutions is a process that most people only go through once. Good luck to you and your child![/quote]
