<p>I'm a senior in high school trying to get a gauge on academic scholarships/merit aid. I'm very interested in Santa Clara, LMU, Pepperdine and USD. I have a 4.0 unweighted gpa and a 4.2 weighted. I had a 2330 on the composite SAT (790 math, 780 writing and 760 critical reading. Any help from recent students is much appreciated?</p>
<p>I don’t actually attend any of the schools, but I applied to SCU and LMU last year. They give good merit aid especially considering your stats. I think you would have a great shot at a full tuition (Presidential) scholarship at both.</p>
<p>LMU has Arrupe scholarship for academic, Presidential is invited for interview in February, about top 1% get full tuition, your stats appear solid. D two years ago had FAFSA need met, but they definitely don’t meet need for all. Similar grades, significantly lower tests (but still good), wasn’t invited for interview. Early action, knew admission and scholarship by Christmas.</p>
