It’s hard to say, stl2cali2k1, without know a little more than you ought to share on a site like this. All of them should provide decent aid, but your family income may be a little high for getting full aid from Northwestern… but not sure of that since their policies changed recently. Stanford doesn’t have a binding early decision option, but instead a single-choice-early-action (non-binding) that may not actually confer any increased odds in getting accepted.

Wait until you’re fairly close to application time and check their financial aid info on their websites for the most up-to-date information. Financial aid policies are going through many changes right now, mostly to the benefit of the students.

Remember along with family income you should consider other assets… it’s not just based on income at any of those schools. However, they are generous schools and should help you out if you get accepted.
