My DC was offered 10K from Mary Washington and 7500 from CNU (we are in-state). Also 20-35K from out of state LACS (Juniata, Ithaca, Ursinus)

Why is this question beyond vague? I imagine there are people here who have a kid or know of someone who got a large merit scholarship. If so, they could share that info.


My kid got a full ride.

Sorry, no advice for your question but man is this a stupid and uninformed comment.

Huh?


Must’ve posted on the wrong thread.


I don't think PP is on the wrong thread. I think PP is implying that only kids who have extended time on testing (and score high!) or those in the top 1% of their class receive merit scholarships.

It's not true. Try the many colleges in Ohio, OP. What's your budget?
