USC Merit based Aid (for CSBA) - Advice Needed

We are down to two to select for my D - UW - CS (direct admit) and USC (CS BA). We just got a letter from USC confirming the Presidential scholarship (Tuition waiver of 50%) as a NMF.

Need Help → USC is still at 2X of the cost of UW - CS (program is #6 in US), our local university. Big decision for us. She loves their CS-BA program but hard to justify the 2x!

My D missed the Dec 1st 2018 deadline to apply. – Any other ideas or suggestions to get USC to reconsider any other merit-scholarship? It will help immensely!

@menloparkmom any suggestions?

To @mmkedia your DD got the presidential scholarship of half tuition. Are you not eligible for need based aid?

@menloparkmom any suggestions?

already answered on the other thread.
If she was not eligible for FA, then I’m afraid the 1/2 NM scholarship is all she is eligible for.

Thanks again @menloparkmom!
