| My own view is that high achievers should study out the web sites of colleges and see if any of the colleges of interest offer good merit aid/scholarships. If you have any concern about finances, a good look at the web sites will show some interesting programs and potential merit scholarship where you could be happy. As far as your situation at Duke, do you have another scholarship/financial aid package at a comparable school which you can present to try to get Duke to come up with more money? |
