Thanks for the response. I think with the received acceptances TAMU is her first choice since we need to wait for other acceptances. Since our household income is less than 200k, I was hoping for some need based scholarships and that’s the reason I was thinking about applying for reach schools. I think it better to drop UC colleges from our list and go with whatever we applied so far and try out few reach schools. Twins will both go to college next year, will that help getting any need based scholarships. We will know more in the next couple of months based on admission outcomes. TAMU has ETAM process which can be bypassed for NMSF applicants.
