Please help with suggestions in the South/Mid-Atlantic

^^^ Trinity in TX would almost be a lock for 20K+ in scholarships (per year). and it is a reasonably priced private that is very well respected. Very good choice if TX is in the running. They have EA so no reason not to get this acceptance and merit award under the belt early in the process.

Look into scholarships for OOS students at New College of Florida.

Also check out St. Mary’s College of MD (Maryland’s public honors college).

These are both public liberal arts colleges.

With a 4.0 GPA/35 ACT and top class rank, she might get money from University of Pittsburgh. Apply early, application opens in July I believe.

Thanks for the additional suggestions everyone! I’m writing them all down for her to look at and consider applying to.

And since the conversation has moved to include Texas schools, Baylor is another with excellent merit scholarships (full tuition and beyond) to their honors college for top students.
