Chance Me / Match Me! Junior Year Student from Boston [3.58 GPA, psychology, need full FA / scholarship]

in your title, you say you need full financial aid.

In cost, you say full need aid or generous merit, depending on school.

What’s your true budget?

What can you pay in other words. Has your family run the Brown, Amherst, and Tufts net price calculator, as all three offer no merit?

Have you attended any fly ins?

What language will you take next year?

Science - psych is not a science. It counts as a social science, like history.

If you are a Junior and you had all As but 1 F, if you had 6 classes a semester, through two years and 24 classes, your GPA would be higher than a 3.58.

The test will tell a lot - but I would add Hail Mary schools like SMU (Presidential) and W&L Johnson (10% of the class gets) - full rides.

Given you are at a boarding school, that’s who you should talk to - but regardless of the reasons, the F in Physics might keep you out but on the other hand, it looks like you repeated.

Does your family make less than $65K? If so, Questbridge may be a good thing for you.
