Hi everyone! I’m a High School senior from a public high school in California. Im looking at a whole bunch of schools to apply to (UC and private) but because my family is upper middle class (but we have 4 kids and really cant afford a private) the need based financial aid we would get is not enough to make private schools affordable. Does anyone know of descent schools that would probably offer me academic merit scholarships or full rides?

My Stats:) (dont you just love the way college admissions makes us classify ourselves?):
SAT superscore: 2210 (Reading 750, Math 740, Writing 720)
ACT: 34
AP Euro, AP US, AP Physics: All 5’s
SAT Subject tests: Math 2: 760, Physics: 780, US History: 790
Unweighted GPA 4.0, Weighted 4.6
IB full diploma candidate
Extracurriculars: started a community service club, Secretary General of my school’s MUN program, probably president of Academic Decathlon team, and I lived in South Africa for 3 years (grade 7 to 10)

Thanks so much!
