@Ctamayo I haven’t received any financial aid package as of now. I find out by the end of the month if I’m a finalist for the presidential scholarship, which would be a full-ride, so I’m really hoping for that! I would assume that my invitation to the honors program is a good sign, but who knows? When I spoke with one of Villanova’s admissions counselors, he told me that the presidential is the only opportunity for merit. However, I’ve also heard through word of mouth that finalists for the presidential who don’t get the presidential may end up getting extra aid in addition to need-based. I’m really not sure though! Hoping for the best! Good luck to your son as well!
