<p>“Boston University makes every effort to assist students with calculated financial need and high academic achievement, measured against the credentials of other accepted students. However, the University does not have sufficient funds to offer scholarship and grant awards to every admitted student who has calculated need.”</p>
<p>the chart on the link you provided also seems to be a very good indicator that BU will give a certain amount in aid if you meet those criteria. And if they don’t, you can always appeal to them or call the office if, first, you get accepted and, second, are not happy with the aid you’re offered. to be honest, your stats look pretty good so you might get some merit scholarship, but you’re also in the $140,000 bracket. unless you have 2 siblings in college with you or something of that nature, you probably won’t get much aid. they tend to reserve it for people who do very well in school and have a huge calculated need. i posted in a previous thread that bu gave me a merit scholarship but said i had no need which was infuriating for me. but then again, after coming here and seeing all my friends, the ones that had much more need than i got much more in aid which makes me feel better. my income bracket for my family is nowhere near yours and they said i had no financial need so might as well apply early and not worry about it if you really wanna go here.</p>
