^^ Bucknell, Lafayette and Fordham- all Patriot League, and all have merit awards.
Patriot league school told my daughter she would get athletic or merit scholarship but not both.
Update - made 1st Team Sectionals and just missed out making all State. PRs of 15:07 for 3 miles and 15:54 for 5k on tough course. He had a 3200m time trial today and was at 9:29. Coach thinks he will drop below 9:20 before the season is out. Lots of late interest including two Ivie and a few academically prestigious D1 schools. OVs planned and although he is not top tier, he should wind up in a nice spot (aka affordable) and ready to compete at the next level.
@DiegoDad1. Congrats as it sounds like his hard work is paying off! Remember, that Ivy can’t provide any athletic scholarships, only need based. He’ll have a great time on his OV’s!
We received a favorable pre-read for both financials and admittance from both Ivies. He is hoping for a likely letter after OVs.
Also, thanks to everyone who posted here. I learned all about OVs, LLs, Pre-read and more. Great community.
Best of luck!
