What are my chances for merit $$?

<p>I think you will get aid, just don’t count on it being a lot. My stats were better than yours when I applied 3 years ago and I only got $10k/year instead of full tuition. I would definitely apply EARLY if merit aid is a big deal for you. Your GPA and SAT make you eligible for Honors College, which is where most merit aid comes from, so that’s good.</p>

<p>Please don’t put that on your resume/college application you send in. Being able to use PowerPoint and Excel is a given at the college level. You just kind of look silly putting that next to all your other activities.</p>
