I reread some of your earlier posts. You have a IM family contribution of about $35k.

You have a son who’s being recruited for a sport and OSU and Miami-Oxford are the safeties. Did one of those schools offer the $20k merit?

Are you wondering if a higher ranked school will match what a safety school has offered? If so, then the answer is not likely unless they really, really want your child.
