<p>Also, have you looked at Slippery Rock University? That school would be in your price range. Slippery Rock is around $23000 per year if you are in state and I’m sure he would qualify for merit aid. It’s got about 5,000 students. For tuition, it’s about $9,000 and if you are near there, he can stay at home. He would qualify for about $3,000 in merit aid and if you take out a around $5,000 in aid, that makes it very manageable. Also, if he brings his SAT score up by a lot, he could aim for the Ivies where you would attend of absolutely no cost.</p>
