<p>Does RPI give good merit scholarships and financial aid to students like me? My goods are over [url=<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=75370%5Dhere%5B/url">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=75370]here[/url</a>]. My school doesn't have the Medal program because it's too small, but I think I'd qualify for it if my school did. How can I get my high school to sign up? Also, considering how high my need is for college, is there any way to get 100% of my need covered with minimal loans without winning the Medal? Thanks.</p>
<p>If your school contacts RPI they can sign up and give the medal, it shouldn't be a problem if you have them contact RPI soon. RPI is usually very good with scholarships especially for minorities and females, which usually don't appear often in engineering programs. In general though, a lot of people get a ton of scholarships, I would say if you can have less than 10K a year in loans to pay off it would be worth it.</p>
