Merit aid at Bard?

I got accepted (I applied Early Action), but now I'm waiting to hear back about aid. I'll probably get some financial aid, but I'm especially curious about merit-based aid. Any insights? Does Bard give out much?

I hope so, because it's the only way I can go. I hear they give out great aid meeting around 90% of student need. I suppose it's only to be expected of Bard to have some wealth seeing as it used be an undergraduate college of Columbia.

I actually remembering seeing that they gave 60% of demonstrated need but can't the source.

if you're interested in science or economics they have great scholarships for those.

If you are in the top 10 of your high school graduating class you can be given a scholarship where it will cost you what a state school would cost to go per year, which is a pretty sweet deal
