Are you familiar with Colleges that Change Lives? Most of the schools in that book give merit aid. Checknout the website College Solutions, too. Also, there are College Confidential threads that are devoted to the topic of merit aid. You have a good ACT but in general, the more renowned the school, the less generous they are with merit. The only one on your revised list that I know for sure offers merit is Willamette. I guess what I’m trying to say is while your ACT may get you admitted to several of the schools on your list, it may not get you much merit aid. Therefore, I’d search for at least one more school similar to Willamette where you’re likely to not only be admitted, but to get a good merit aid offer.
