Does anyone know if Mount Holyoke stacks need and merit aid? My DD is well above their stats.
Thanks!
Very doubtful.
Merit is usually applied FIRST, if that takes care of need, then there’s no need to cover.
They do not. My D was offered 1/2 tuition scholarship last year and it didn’t stack. She had 3 other merit offers on the table and they were all same way.
I’d be cautious about Mt Holyoke next year in terms of merit and use as a safety. They have been over enrolled the last three years and this years class is the largest ever. All signs point to extremely tight admissions next year. There’s been a bit of a buzz about it in other forums…plus they have jumped in the rankings. It’s a great school but just be aware!
