Top 100 Colleges Providing Merit Aid

Ask most successful entrepreneurs the best way to invest in anything and they will tell you…OPM. OPM for the uninitiated investor stands for “other people’s money”, and the same principle is true when it comes time to invest in your child’s college education.

The good news is there are billions of dollars of free need and merit-aid money available to families every year, and the key is to getting that money is knowing how…and where to get it.

For higher income families that don’t qualify for need based aid, there are 63 colleges in the U.S today with endowments over $1billion…any thousands more with money to give.

Listed below is a chart of the top 100 colleges and universities who give merit money. See how many of your target schools are on there:
