@perseverance1 Denison. The rest of his list was Bowdoin, Middlebury, Kenyon, Amherst, Williams, William and Mary, Davidson, Kenyon, Vanderbilt, Grinnell, Carleton, Dartmouth, Hamilton, Dickinson. None of these schools needed FAFSA or CSS.
Of this group, only Grinnell, Kenyon, Dickinson, Davidson, and Vanderbilt give merit money so this exercise was only really needed for those schools on his list. Of these schools with possible merit money, he was accepted at the first four with merit from Grinnell, Kenyon, and Dickinson. Waitlisted at Vandy.
