My soon to be senior in sept daughter has done pretty well, not phenomonal, but is top 10%, NHS, AP, etc. Her SAT scores were okay. Being tutored over summer in hopes of improving. She is looking at Marist, SUNY Buffalo, Gordon College to name a few. My questions is regarding scholarship monies. Is she better off applying at more mediocre schools to get more money, or should she stick with better schools and get less money? She is a quarter hispanic student looking to study medicine.

Thanks!
