<p>CountingDown,
I am not sure whatever that was, but OSU gave my D. about $3k / year and it was nothing at all.
While financial side was not our top criteria, D. still ended up on a full tuition Merit at different in-state public. I do not know criteria to maintain the Merit there, she garduated with the college GPA 3.98. She just could not afford Bs, so her goal was to have an A in every class. Her HS did not have sals and vals and did not rank either. But the class profile was provided and it was not that hard to see who is at the top among 33 kids.</p>
