<p>^ Not really. If the OP have excellent stats he has a chance at getting accepted to schools with large endowments. He would do far better financially at these schools (if he has a low EFC) than he would at most other schools even with merit aid (unless they give him a full merit scholorship). I have seen a couple kids lose merit scholarships because they set the GPA very high to maintain them.</p>
<p>**** I just saw your stats and I would guess you would be very competive for some very nice merit aid. What are you interested in studying?</p>
