[quote=Anonymous]The PP is correct about Chicago, Duke, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, Rice, Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, Wash U, and Emory offering merit aid. In my experience (anecdotal and not statistical), the large awards at these schools go to students who were admitted just about everywhere they applied (including HYPS), but choose the lower (but still top-20) ranked school because of the generous merit aid offer. Just my 2 cents, but if your DC is not accepted to one of the most prestigious schools, he or she is unlikely to be offered significant merit aid by the schools listed above, because they use it to try to lure students who could have gone HYPS but choose not to because of money.
