<p>If your EFC is 0, look at collegeboard and check to see if a school meets 100% of need-based aid. Sure, some of it will be loans, but chemE major will let you pay that off, no problem. I third Rice. That's one that I am looking at for chemE or BME. Basically any school is within reason though still a crap shoot, so now decide what else you want in a school. Party-reputation-wise, political-activeness-wise. Also, if your EFC is 0 you should also qualify for fee waivers so you can apply to a lot of schools. Good luck with your college search.</p>
