Colleges with financial aid similar to the Ivy League's?

<p>I know Ivy Leagues usually give at least full tuition to students whose family income is under a certain amount. I'm a good student, but I don't think I'm quite good enough for the Ivy Leagues. Anyone know of any other colleges with similar policies?</p>

<p>In general the colleges with the best aid are also the most selective, mainly because everyone applies to them for the aid… They can pick the top students to attend.</p>

<p>If you are willing to post your SAT or ACT scores and your GPA, someone here may be able to point you to schools with guaranteed MERIT aid for someone with stats like yours.</p>

<p>Here is a place to start. Note this has not been updated since 2010 and some schools have changed their policies (for example both Williams & Dartmouth now include loans in their FA award to meet need). Go to each schools website to verify their current practices.

<p>I just noticed they did update those two in the footnotes.</p>

<p>Thanks for all of the information. I am only entering my junior year so the only test score I have is my PSAT, which was 192 (so 1920). Not great, but it will probably be increasing. That score put me in the top 6% of juniors. I will probably finish in the top ten of my large public school with a weighted 4.0 gpa</p>
