<p>You need to figure out your cost limit, and check the net price calculators at various universities to see what kind of financial aid they will give. Note that Stanford is extra-generous with need based financial aid, so do not assume that its financial aid is representative of other schools’ financial aid.</p>

<p>Check your in-state publics; if you have high test scores or National Merit, some of the schools listed in these threads may work:
