Looking for advice for niece

<p>From the schools we are familiar with, for the most FA, apply to the top tier schools if she has the SSAT scores (hopefully above 90) in their range. Most will meet close to or 100% of DEMONSTRATED financial need. Please be aware of what demonstrated financial need is rather than what parents might say they can afford. Their system for financial need is similar to the FAFSA which I would think you would be familiar with. Check with each of their websites to familiarize yourself with their financial aid programs. It’s kind of like the colleges, if you apply to the ivies and other colleges that promise to fill the gap for demonstrated need with grant money, you will have the best chance for the most FA.</p>
