About $35k at Rochester
Fordham was full tuition but they are not strong in sciences

NMF?
Full ride at Tulsa

Try Reed, Sewanee and Rhodes for at least 50% off.

What is your state flagship? A lot of amazing bio research occurs at state universities, including UNC, UMass Amherst, Cal, UCLA, UCSD, etc. and it will be cheaper than paying $75k to USC, which is known for business and acting (and not STEM).

Is this the only school they're applying to, e.g. for early decision? If not, you don't need to identify one best school.

Awesome, we need more of this kind of information!

EA for mine.
Think 30k/year. Humanities though

$20K off of $96K still leaves you $76K a year out of pocket. There are a lot of schools with good bio departments that are a lot cheaper than that.

No.

Merit scholarships are moving to the wayside along with EBT and subsidized housing. If you can’t afford college they should get a job for several years and save up. Or enroll in community college.
