Affordable Schools for my Situation

Don’t forget that you should be able to earn around $3,000 each summer.

Consider UNM or New Mexico State. They have competitive full ride scholarships for OOS freshman, renewable for 4 years, as well as full ride NMF scholarships (not sure if automatic or competitive or if any apply to semifinalists).

Below that, they have very low-bar automatic scholarships coupled with low COA making them a good financial safety for most students–the lower scholarships wouldn’t quite get you to where you need to be–but check them out.

When looking at the yolasite, keep in mind it may not be updated with the latest info (that was a topic of another thread) so always go straight to the college’s own website for the latest, and email them with any questions.
