Fordham seems to be the most generous to NMFs, and even with that you still have more than $10k in costs.

The OPs stats aren’t high enough for big merit from Fordham. At most he’d be given is about $10k $15k per year…at a school that costs more than $50k to attend.

To end up with a cost of between $10k-15k (assuming a student loan), this student needs to consider instate publics or lower ranked schools that would give huge merit for his stats.
