How much scholarship money do you think I can get?

As a soon-to-be college freshman at Stanford, I can speak from experience that your scores, cles, and involvement are all really impressive. Washington University in St. Louis has applications for half-to-full tuition scholarships that I would look into if I were you. You really cant predict much with the admissions process because there are so many qualified students across the nation and abroad. If you haven't already, look for some merit-based scholarships on fastweb. com (financial aid depends on your family's income so I can't predict your success with that). If you become a National Merit scholar, some schools will offer you scholarships up to full tuition (but they may not be at the same caliber as your current list) These are all options to consider but the most important thing is be able to describe (out of all the things you're involved in) one or two things that you're especially pionate about. That is what will make you a successful applicant in addition to your creditionals. Good luck this year with everything :)
