<p>My son is a junior in HS and making a short for applications and Hendrix is on the list b/c it has a good academic record, is small, and has a reputation for merit aid. He has a 32 ACT and is going to a dedicated Math and Science high school for our state. Any input on Hendrix is welcome since there is not much info I can find other than the official website. Thanks.</p>
<p>Hi edlmct1,</p>
<p>As the parent of a current Hendrix student and a lifelong Arkansas resident, I'd be happy to try to answer any questions. </p>
<p>If you are new to the CC discussion boards, you might find some good info using the advanced search function to set the date back about a year for the Hendrix posts.</p>
<p>I'm assuming you are not from Arkansas, but if you are and your son has already made a 32 ACT, he would be eligible for the Arkansas Governor's Distinguished Scholarship which amounts to a free ride at Hendrix. If you are from out of state, he should still get a really nice merit aid package coming from a Math/Science magnet with a 32 ACT.</p>
