<p>So my dilemma is that my dad works at Elon where I could go for free assuming I get in (I have a 4.24 weighted GPA and an 1840 SAT). I do not want to do this, however, because I want to go to a big SEC school out of state. I don't want to go to a school where I've spent my whole life. I am a junior in high school. I have narrowed my choices down. 1. U. of South Carolina 2. Ole Miss 3. LSU. My dad tells me the only way I could go there is if I get the right amount of scholarship money. How much does would a student like me get in scholarships? And how hard would it be to get an AFROTC scholarship? And would an employer want to hire a kid from a small private school more than hiring a student from a big state school? I want to major in either accounting or corporate finance. Can I get a full tuition AFROTC scholarship by majoring in one of those two? Thanks.</p>
<p>Don’t you have to serve in the air force after graduation if you had their scholarship? If so…then the fact that the school was a big or small one won’t matter upon graduation.</p>
<p>Can’t help you otherwise. Good luck!!!</p>
<p>If you want to be an officer in the Air Force, you need to check the requirements for its ROTC program, and the Air Force Academy.</p>
<p>If you can get an ACT score of 32 or SAT CR+M score of 1400, a big SEC school, the University of Alabama, will give you a full out of state tuition scholarship. You can check the net price calculators and scholarship portions of each school’s web site.</p>
<p>However, you may want to consider your in-state publics, even though they may be in the ACC or other sports conferences instead of the SEC.</p>
<p>I know I have to serve. Being in the military has always been an option for me that I would do. I have a 1200 SAT M+CR. I plan on taking it again. And I just really want to go to a big SEC school. That’s my dream. I’ve been going to small schools forever and I want to change. Plus a lot of my family members have gone to big SEC schools. How much money does the average student get in scholarships?</p>
<p>The AVERAGE student gets a couple of thousand dollars in scholarship, at most. It takes good grades and scores (generally) to get anything above that.</p>
