<p>^I’m really trying hard for that, since OSU gives a full tuition plus half room and board scholarship for National Merit Finalists.</p>
<p>I think I’ve decided that Brown and Amherst really aren’t worth it for undergrad. I’d rather save the money for grad school and the life thereafter. I like liberal arts colleges, but who do I think I’m fooling? It’s just too expensive. I’ll apply to the ones that give me merit aid in addition to financial aid. I’ll most likely get some financial aid, but not enough to cover $50k/year.</p>
