The information is out there. You just need to look around. For example, on the FAFSA site there is a link to scholarships site http://www.ScholarshipPoints.com .

These schools have vast financial resources, and typically meet all financial need, often with significant grants. A state school, while cheaper at first glance, may or may not meet all financial need, and likely doesn't have the money to issue such grants. Additionally, the famous schools have the potential to give you better training and networking in your chosen field, and as such may be worth more to you than the state school. Perhaps not $20,000-in-loans more, but at any rate you should apply and see if you can get a deal.
