College Search & Lists
1

<p>I am looking for rigorous, liberal arts colleges in the midwest and northeast that have over 2000 students but less than 8000 students.</p>

<p>So far I am interested in Bowdoin, Carleton, Brown, Wesleyan, Williams, Tufts, Middlebury and Dartmouth.
None of these offer merit aid and I don’t have any safety schools!</p>

<p>SAT: 710 math, 700 verbal, 700 writing.
ACT:34
top 5% of a class of 200 students. honors/ap courses.
a few extracurriculars: president of a club, intramurals</p>

<p>ANY IDEAS OF SCHOOLS THAT OFFER MERIT AID or any SAFETY SCHOOL???
I would greatly appreciate any help =)</p>

<p>Denison (OH) and Depauw (IN).</p>

3

<p>Muhlenberg maybe?</p>

4

<p>Notre Dame would be a safety for you. Doesn’t do merit aid tho.</p>

5

<p>umm Notre Dame would hardly be a safety for her. I know people with better stats than OP that consider it a reach</p>

<p>Denison is obvious. If you visit it might not be just your safety… :)</p>

7

<p>notre dame gives cash, but if you arent white and catholic its not teh best place for you in my opinion</p>

8

<p>According to US News, Notre Dame offered 1% of their applicants an average of $5,400 of merit aid. Not enough to warrant a glance in my opinion.</p>

<p>Yeah I definitely wouldn’t be looking at ND for merit aid, especially if your stats aren’t superb. It’s a great school though and I don’t know why venkater feels like you have to be white for it to be the best school for you, but I have a couple of friends who are black who feel very differently</p>
