Rice does offer some merit aid in addition to their financial aid, so I wouldn’t discount it entirely. The University of Rochester is a great suggestion (but for the weather); it also offers merit aid and has a BSMD program.

I can appreciate your not being overly keen on the USC vibe (my daughter wasn’t either).

I would not totally rule out the Claremont Colleges - the consortium provides both the advantages of a small school and those of a larger university.

Emory, like many schools, was founded as a religious institution (in Emory’s case, Methodist), but is no longer affiliated with the church. In fact, it has a very large Jewish population.
