<p>I just read all these and I guess I should have posted what schools I’m considering…it was late and I was tired, sorry.
But uh, I only applied to Georgia Southern, Mercer University, and Emory (and the Oxford campus for Oxford Scholars, if you want to count that as a fourth school). I’m from Georgia, which I guess is obvious by my school choices. I recently went to Georgia Southern for a scholarship/ honors program interview. There were about 160 kids there, and only around 20 were interviewed for a full ride, and since I was one of those 20 I thought I had a real shot, but I didn’t get the full ride. This sort of freaked me out because I feel like if I can’t get a full ride to Georgia Southern, then there’s no way I’m going to get one to Mercer, or especially Emory. </p>
<p>Oh, and my dad only did the Net Price Calculator for Emory, and he told me we wouldn’t get any extra financial aid because they have a a cutoff at $100,000 income and he makes probably not even 10 or 20 thousand over that.</p>
