<p>I saved a pdf of the 2012 report before they pulled it so I could compare. </p>
<p>Highlights:</p>
<p>NEU, up from 103 to 144 NMFs. Well that explains the drop in the scholarship. Getting to be too many to afford, or they figured they are desirable enough that they can offer less and still get a good contingent. Can't wait to see next year's report.</p>
<p>I think people l ready knew that Alabama's attempt to reduce scholarship also reduced their # from 241 to 123, saw it in a thread somewhere.</p>
<p>UT-Dallas, up from 63 to 89. Weren't they the ones sending around a postcard with a typo that had them offering a small fortune to NMFs?</p>
<p>Oklahoma dropped from 194 to 173. That's not huge %agewise, but it got me wondering if they might have done something like Alabama. I wasn't paying attention at the time. Did they drop their $$$ that year? I know they raised money substantially this year.</p>
<p>U Kentucky, up from 70 to 95, despite the high bar to get into honors program.</p>
<p>ASU up from 97 to 119, and UArizona down from 81 to 68. I guess the kids are voting with their stomachs. Haha.(Jkjk, I don't know that that is significant, just random fluctuation.)</p>
