Affordability. BE WARY of the generous Merit Scholarships at UVM

Yes, well, NEW college parents with smart high-achieving children, do keep it in mind when turning away from other more affordable options.

This last child got into every school applied to in the chosen major and could have gone to schools where merit aid on the line would not have been an issue. Instead there has been a lot of unnecessary stress over a scholarship they are unlikely to lose. It is something to keep in mind for those just getting those acceptances now, in a position to choose.
