[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For what its worth, Emory does offer merit based scholarships. Believe the other two are need bssed only. [/quote]

Yeah doubt he gets it.  He will be a close call if he gets in.  Expecting boost from ED.  I am sure that is for ivy caliber kids that choose Emory.  [/quote]
[b]Emory kids[/b] are ivy Calibur if you mean Cornell, you probably didn't. WashU has merit scholarships as well. [/quote]

Well of course they claim they offer merit scholarships.  They cost $70K a year.  The fact is that most top schools simply don't offer any merit at all.  You have to drop down a tier or two to see any significant money.  Even with some offers of $26K off the price tag from some southern schools you have never heard of (and solicited my DS because they had bought the high scoring ACT list), it was still far cheaper to go to UVA at then $32K a year.[/quote]

Vanderbilt, WashU, Rice, Emory, Northwestern, Carnegie Mellon, Duke, UVA, UCB, and UCLA all offer Merit Scholarships. [/quote]
