So I just found out that I am royally screwed. I am a middle-lower upper class white male with two parents and one twin sibling. My dad makes enough money that puts me out of the running for a lot of financial aid but still in the running for some (150,000-175,000 per year total).
I hate this because I am looking at a lot of top tier schools and I fully believe that I have the qualifications to get in, but getting a merit scholarship at these schools is crazy and I am not THAT smart. Some of my schools are Duke, Georgetown, George Washington, UNC Chapel Hill, Davidson, and Johns Hopkins.
I hate this because I do not want to miss out on an amazing education simply because I cannot afford it. What do I do?
