[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]State school if you have that option, and if not (DC people), lots of private schools below 40 give significant merit aid, and they are amazing colleges. You have to give up the idea that there are bad choices or that it's top 10 or bust. In such thinking lies the path to destruction.[/quote] My ds cannot get into a top 10 school! Or probably even top 50. As for private schools giving so much aid, I have not actually found any where that would be the case. Most are over 70k, and then you can hope for "some aid". Because he does not have a high SAT score, he will not qualify for the very large awards. If you have found a school that will definitely give a kid like mine (1390 SAT and all As) tons of merit bringing the cost down significantly, please share because I will want him to consider it and apply if he likes it![/quote] Look at privates between rank 50 and 100. Gonzaga, TCU, LMU, USD, etc.[/quote]
