<p>Hi There
My daughter is a very happy freshman at Iowa State. Now her brother who is actually a year older is thinking about attending. He has 2 years of community college under his belt and a 7 month stint in the Disney college internship in Orlando.</p>

<p>His grades are not stellar...3.0 in all college work and his HS GPA is about a 2.7. ACT score is a 30. Yah he is an underachiever. His 7 months at Disney really seem to have straightened him out and he is more focused and driven than I have ever seen him. He was able to work with the Imagineers at Disney and has found his passion.</p>

<p>He will be going into Mechanical Engineering. </p>

<p>Is there any type of discount offered if you have two kids attending Iowa State? I don't think he will qualify for any merit aid with is grades.</p>

<p>Thoughts?

<p>I attend ISU and I know my mom is really pushing my younger brother to come here because there is a sibling discount. I do not know how much it is worth, and I think it depends on if your in-state or out of state.</p>

<p>I would call the financial aid office (Look up Beardschear Hall, or something spelled like that) and ask them because they will give you a definite answer.</p>
