<p>how good is smu on giving merit based aid?</p>
<p>about what percentage do applicants receive this type of aid?</p>
<p>About 75% of SMU students receive some form of financial aid, and I know from my own experience that SMU was willing to work with me to put together a financial aid package to make SMU work for me and my family. In my experience they’re very good with giving out scholarships. The best way to get a good deal is getting to know your admissions counselor because they can fight for you to get more money.</p>
<p>ughh i just got my acceptance today!! but no mention of any scholarships :(</p>
