<p>scrivener, what is your EFC? You need to find this out. Run the calculators at [College</a> Calculators - savings calculators - college costs, loans](<a href=“College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools”>Calculate Your Cost – BigFuture | College Board) If your EFC is less than what your parents are truly able and willing to pay, then you are in luck. An institution that meets full need will be affordable. If your EFC is more than your parents are able and willing to pay, then you are going to have to hunt down places that will give you merit aid based on your stats.</p>
<p>Pop over to the Financial Aid Forum (there is a link on the left-hand side of this screen) and read up on the topic. You will find lots of useful information there.</p>
