<p>dadx,
please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I think it's not permissable by the ncaa restrictions............that those Div. 1 wbb scholarships cannot be split. it's full ride or no athletic $$$$. isn't this the same with men's bball? i think this is sport specific. Can Div. 1 football scholarships be split? </p>
<p>and..........there are d1 programs that chose not to award all 15........choosing instead to have a smaller roster.........and this leads into a whole other discussion on the reasons for a smaller roster. there is discussion in the news about suggestions that the 15 be reduced to 12. 12 is what the men have.</p>
<p>with Div. 2....$$$'s can be split.............partial tuition or full tuition. i'm not sure about where d2 room and board falls in the mix. </p>
<p>dadx and 3bm103 - thanks for your interesting posts. i notice among local athletes in non-revenue sports. they are only offered partial or full tuition scholarships.......these are students that go d2. sometimes academic merit aid $$$'s are found to help with the room and board costs but I think the athletic $$$'s go towards tuition only. maybe this is decided by the particular conferences?</p>
