<p>I can’t comment on your chances since I don’t know your scores, grades, or other details. But I will recommend that you apply to several schools–maybe 7 or 8. If you need financial aid it is best to apply to more. I have heard that the PG year is one of the hardest years to get financial aid for. </p>
<p>One of my students applied to PG programs last year needing full aid. He had a single parent who is a school teacher, raising 3 kids on $35,000. He applied to 6 schools and did not get full financial aid at any of them. However, he is now attending one where they are requiring him to pay $13k, so they have taken out some loans.</p>
<p>I don’t want to scare you, but I think you should know that the aid piece will be the hardest. Apply to top schools like Andover that have plenty of aid, but also to less well known schools where you would be at the top of the applicant pool. I’m assuming you are a girl, which is a big plus. Good luck!</p>
