<p>Hey, haven’t talked to you in awhile 
haha
Well, I personally think that you have a good shot at Emory Scholars (I think I’m applying for it too). You’re a strong writer and have plenty to talk about. Your ECs are strong and diverse, so you can pull from that too.
I wish that you’d go to St. John’s in Annapolis, because I think that you’d be most fit for that school; however, they don’t really do financial aid unless it’s need-based and it’s way expensive.
What about smaller liberal arts schools like Ogelthorpe in Atlanta or try to get the scholarship for Mercer? There’s also the University of the South (Sewanee) in Tennessee. </p>
<p>You should be looking at larger schools with major scholarships based on merit. Do check out University of Chicago. Also, there are lots of Georgia Scholarships (especially in the local area..) that you would be competitive in. Also, the Ayn Rand scholarship (you’d have to read ‘Fountainhead’, which you may enjoy..) is $10,000 for 1st place and very prestigious. My friend got into the semifinals. check out some literary scholarships in general.</p>
