^good luck, tma!
and foolishpleasure, i did get better packages from both scripps and wellesley.
i dont think they were in any way merit based. Smith may have just forgotten to consider some things (like the fact that my bro is going to grad school) so my dad appealed the financial aid. we'll see how it works out, but if it doesn't, i think i'm leaning towards wellesley now anyways
