Southren schools try to overcome location disadvantage by offering merit to some students they really don't want to lose to Ivies. Schools mentioned above want top middle class applicants as well, doesn't want to only have rich and poor students.
I attended one of those Southern universities. Compared to my child who is the middle of Freezing Nowhere, New England at a top SLAC, the location was fantastic. Your bias against the south is showing.
I'm surprised your kid wanted to go to freezing nowhere instead of your awesome alma matter
