I’m pretty sure there aren’t any schools in New England-Mid Atlantic region that offer guaranteed merit scholarships like UNM and Alabama do. Merit awards will be competitive and you may need to drop down a level in selectivity from the schools you’ve listed in your first post to score merit money.

Penn, for example, doesn’t give out any merit money at all. WashU is notoriously stingy with merit.

You might try posting in the FA forum & ask about merit awards since the posters there will be more up to date on what schools are offering.

You can try applying to several of the other schools on your list and hope to win a competitive merit award, but if finances are a concern, you’ll need to cast a wider net and be willing to expand your geographic preferences.
