Hi everyone,
I have several questions regarding grants and scholarships. I have been offered a need-based grant at Northwestern and a merit scholarship at Case Western, for roughly equal amounts, with the Case scholarship being slightly more.
1) Differences in amount aside, is there any advantage to a merit-based scholarship over need-based grant?
2) Will being the recipient of a merit-based scholarship help me at all when it's residency application time?
3) Will getting the merit scholarship at Case mean that I will probably not get any more NEED-BASED grants/scholarships from them?
Any answers would be much appreciated!
