<p>Most of your list is OOS public universities (exception being UT, USC and Wash U)…typically, OOS student do not receive significant amounts of money from public universities that are not in their state. There are some exceptions…UVA (which I believe also requires the PROFILE) meets full need, I believe. </p>
<p>To be honest, I don’t believe any of the schools in this list guarantee to meet full need, except USC (which I think meets full need). That being the case, I wouldn’t want to hedge my bets on you receiving anything but the Stafford loans. </p>
<p>I guess my question is…why are you only looking at expensive OOS tuition public universities? Are there any privates where you might get merit aid, or less expensive public universities (e.g. UNC-Charlotte and UNC Greensboro are less pricey and less competitive than UNC Chapel Hill).</p>
