[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t be outraged. Just don’t go if merit isn’t offered to bring the cost down. Why the handwringing? There are other options.[/quote]

With a few limited exceptions such as WashU, none of these schools offer merit scholarships.[/quote]

Merit scholarships are available everywhere except the Ivies, Stanford, MIT and CalTech. And all of the non-merit schools offer exceptionally good financial aid. Of course, it's incredibly difficult to get a merit scholarship at Duke, Chicago, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, Rice, and so on. But they do exist. [/quote]

As I said, "with a few limited exceptions."  Of course they exist. But they are not available "everywhere" except the schools you named - most elite schools do not offer them.[/quote]

NP. You are wrong, again. With the exceptions mentioned (Ivies, Stanford, MIT and Caltech), most T30 schools offer full tuition and/or full ride to the tippy top students. Just because you are ignorant of these scholarships doesn't make them non existent.[/quote]
