I am looking for the best LACs I can get into with my credentials in the northeast and Midwest
…
I realize my stats don’t allow much in terms of financial aid (I’m not considered in need) but if you could give me some schools that had a lower cost or offered grants (not too crazy about loans) I’d appreciate it.

<p>If you are looking for a low cost liberal arts college in the Northeast or Midwest, seriously consider the University of Minnesota, Morris. I think the other liberal arts colleges that have been recommended by posters here all have annual tuition rates at least twice as high. (Most people who are looking for low tuition look to their in-state public schools.) I have only known one person who went to UMM; she loved it.</p>

<p>The mission of the University of Minnesota, Morris

The University of Minnesota, Morris (UMM) is unique as an academically rigorous, public undergraduate liberal arts college. UMM’s strength as a liberal arts institution comes primarily from three factors: a focused, narrowly defined mission which provides a rigorous liberal arts program; an intellectually gifted student body; and a faculty dedicated to teaching, to personal contact with students, and to research with full student participation: UMM students produce the largest amount of undergraduate research within the five campuses of the University of Minnesota. It is a college for intelligent, thoughtful, down-to-earth students who want to be involved members of campus and academic life.

<p>How important of a consideration is annual tuition?</p>
