[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From a couple of years ago...NOVA public 3.98/4.5, 1560, CS (Engineering). MAX BUDGET $55k/yr. So even if admitted, merit for OOS public and private will be needed. NO SAFETIES. Bunch of targets. Harvard, Penn (denied) UVA, NEU (WL) WM, UMD, Lehigh, Pitt, BU, CWRU, Ohio St., UMN (accepted-most with merit)[/quote] Can I ask what type of merit you received?[/quote] Sure. WM ($0, Monroe Scholar) UMD ($10k/yr) Lehigh (50% tuition/yr) Pitt ($0) BU ($25k/yr) CWRU ($30k/yr) Ohio St. ($16.5k/yr) UMN ($25k/yr) UVA WL and no money from Pitt was most disappointing, but thats life! Happily attending UMD. [/quote] Was UMN cheaper for you? I know UMD is not that hard to get into, but UMD for CS is harder to get into that non-CS majors.[/quote] PP. Yep. UMN would have been considerably cheaper than UMD[/quote]
