<p>Learn to use the different college search engines, including SuperMatch on here. Go through the Net Price Calculator for each school you find interesting. It takes some nuber of hours to match up your situation with good schools, but let me give it a SWAG.</p>
<p>You have a need for good financial aid and you will be applying as a transfer student. Your stats are good, but not all schools will recognize all of your college credits. Your best bet is still your in-state bargain schools, CPSLO and CPP. The other ones I researched while looking for my son:
Ohio has Case Western, Dayton, Xavier and Cincinatti. NY has RPI and Clarkson. MA has WPI and Northeastern. Drexel in PA. Maybe University of St. Louis. I know next to nothing about schools in the south. It’s a longshot, but Cornell, Dartmouth and Columbia all accept transfers. Note I left off state schools because of financial aid needs, but there are many. WUE schools that accept transfers like New Mexico and South Dakota are not better options than in-state.</p>
