<p>y2k- My D’s stats were comparable to yours. I have a feeling that her aid pkg. may have been helped by her gender, too. Are you M or F? It was interesting to see that the aid offer came in the spring, after her early fall acceptance. The Finaid dept. operates independently from the admissions office, as is usually the case, but since she thought she wouldn’t be getting any merit aid for quite some time, the school wasn’t a high contender on her list. If the scholarship offer had come sooner, it could have possibly changed the outcome.</p>
