[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Do you mean merit aid, or need based aid? Tons, a large majority, in any event, of colleges give need based aid. Merit aid independent of aid is a smaller set, but many of those include the most selective universities and SLACs." This info is wrong. The most selective schools do not give merit aid. If they do, it's to just a tiny sliver of people. Most merit aid comes from schools that are trying to convince you to go there instead of to a higher ranked or even equally ranked school. Think Loyola MD, Fordham, Santa Clara, Mt. St. Mary's, and so on. There are also some publics that give merit, like UNM, Arizona, and Alabama. https://www.collegedata.com/resources/pay-your-way/how-to-get-merit-aid-from-colleges[/quote] Yet the last two presidents went to Delaware and Fordham [/quote]
