Non-need based merit aid and lower priced high quality colleges

Paying for College
1

<p>I am trying to get a list of colleges that give out a lot of Non-need based merit aid and are lower priced high quality colleges. We live in Rhode Island, and most school in New England are over priced and overrated.
My son is in the top 5% of his class, and has taken almost all Honors andAdvanced placement courses with a GPA of 3.78, however his SAT scores, Which are still going to retaken again twice, are about 1300, but should be bumed up about 1400 when finished with his review course. He is captain of is track team, President of the Senior Student counsil, a full time band member, and speaks French almost fluently after two summer french emmersion courses. He has a full time summer job, and shows leadership skills and is self- motivated</p>
