Anyone?

Here you go!
We just went on a tour and met briefly for an info session with an admissions counselor while my daughter interviewed. Oxy does have Merit Aid in the form of scholarships which, if granted, are on top of what they offer in way of college grants based on your income. It has been difficult, however, to get an understanding of how many of these scholarships are awarded. We were told that Merit Aid is usually only extended to the top 10% of applicants. They also shared that they look more closely at GPA and transcripts than SAT and ACT scores.
