Definitely agree. They are all reach schools. I figured don’t even reach - if it’s not affordable, thus the research. From what I can tell, most state schools, particularly flagships, don’t give any financial break for need and only give merit for the highest of performing, and even then, the privates were alot less expensive.
I ran:
Rice
Johns Hopkins
William and Lee
SMU
Emory
Notre Dame
SMU was the highest. I had noted the 200k and under number in the news which caught my eye. We will visit some of these schools sophomore and junior year. It can motivating to know these OPPORTUNITIES are in reach financially. Thanks!
