My eldest D had a similar profile and a 34 ACT AND we had a budget of $35k top (which would include the fed loan, so $30k without it)
Schools that came in within $35k
Alabama
Arizona
Ole Miss
Miami OH
South Carolina
Ursinus
Susquehanna
Juniata
Allegheny
Denison
Wooster
The small LACs on the above list were $30-35k. The cheapest was Ole Miss at something crazy like $12-15k!!
D attends Bama, full tuition paid, so we only need money for room, board, transport etc. Having some flex in the budget was crucial to pay for travel, internships, a contribution towards sorority dues etc. She also has money left over for grad school. It’s relieving not being at the max of our budget.
