Kalamazoo and Wooster give excellent merit aid to strong students. Can make total costs comparable to in-state tuition in Virginia.


Juniata, Allegheny, Washington & Jefferson, Denison, Gettysburg, Dickinson, Chatham University, Centre College, Wheaton MA, etc.


DS got merit from these to make the cost about $30k per year. If you are open to small and rural $30k is not hard to find. She got similar net price at SMCM and Washington College.
