Help! Parents want me to add a private school to my college list..

<p>Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, meets your criteria.<br>

</p>

<p>It is not too small (14,872 undergraduates and 2,395 graduate students on the Oxford campus) and you will likely get a 10k/year scholarship with that 30 ACT score - that will bring your tuition down to maybe $4 or 5K over in-state tuition.
