Hi Sushma,

Thanks for writing in. With the limited information you shared I think Cox could be in your competitive range but McCombs may be a bit of a reach.

Scholarships vary by school and are nearly impossible to predict, especially based on the information you provided. I suggest calling the Financial Aid offices at each school to learn about what scholarships you may be eligible for.

Good luck!
