<p>My daughter goes to a private high school that has a lot of focus on the arts. She has about a 3.9 unweighted GPA, has good extracurriculars with varsity tennis and 3 years of varsity rowing, community service involvement, summer writing camps etc. She hasn't taken her SATs yet but she her PSATs were very good (90+percentiles)and she thinks she can move her SATs to top tiers.</p>
<p>We have a pretty good list of schools that she has a decent shot at (Kenyon, Davidson, Williams)but we are interested in and probably need some merit aid. We may qualify for about 10K of need based aid but it is a little hard to predict given that our income changes year to year as we are independent contractors. Can people suggest schools that she would receive non-financial based aid at that also have good creative writing/literature programs?</p>
<p>She prefers a smaller school.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
