Please visit Miami of Ohio…it’s a stunning place & your search might be over once you see it.
West Virginia U is close…warning: very hilly campus.
@person89 Do you have a sense for what you would like to study? What subjects interest you the most?
The best automatic merit aid will be for schools outside the top 100 who are looking for top notch students like you to attend. Use the search function in CC to find threads on these schools with automatic merit, be advised the requirements do change year to year.
You’re close to U Delaware. You’ll likely get their highest merit there with your scores.
I like Miami of Ohio. But I never thought of it as a good source of significant merit money.
UofTampa, UofTulsa, Temple U , UofDenver all have good merit money. Catholic schools often have nice scholarships.
How much will your parents pay per year? Some schools may give you merit but not enough.
