        @WSJ Thirteen states award more than half of their financial aid based on merit. PA is not one of them. #costofcollege Nice share!

        @WSJ Both! Of the two merit should be held in higher regard. We base athletic scholies on merit, don't we?

        @WSJ ability and application is a function of chance. Parents, DNA, upbringing, education. All chance. Those in need were unlucky. Help them

        @WSJ Merit first then need. What sense is there in giving someone something they don't have the capacity to use?

        @WSJ both, but more merit related awards because some people are too rich to qualify for need based awards but to poor to pay completely #me
