<p>I'm applying for college next year (currently a junior) and now that I have my set of 7 schools I want to get into, I realize I now carry the burden of finding out how the heck I'm going to pay for tuition if I get in!</p>

<p>Please include: What they are majoring in, scholarships they received, their unweighted GPA when they applied, and how much money/tuition the scholarship covered.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>what are your test scores… many schools have automatic merit for a specific gpa and test score combination.</p>

<p>Unweighted GPA: 3.35
W/O fluff classes about: 3.2
Weighted: 4.0
*All on 4.0 scale where an A+ is 4.33

My school stopped ranking for 2014 but before I was about 110/650ish

<p>Northeastern (my #1 and a reach)
Boston University
UMass - Amherst
UConn

Penn State - University Park
Etc?</p>
