Indiana or Ohio State for business/merit money?

<p>We are from Maryland, and assuming he gets in to UMD College Park, he will likely be attending there next fall. However, both Indiana and OSU appear to have pretty strong business programs, and it looks like he'd receive merit from either. (He has a 3.98 weighted GPA, 1390 CR/M SAT).
I'm looking for feedback on either of these schools, particularly the business programs. If he changes his mind on major, my guess is he may go with journalism, so Indiana is of particular interest.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Indiana Kelley is one of the most highly regarded business schools in the country. If you can swing it, go with that. The journalism interest also points to IU.</p>

<p>With those stats, he may be a good contender for the Wells Scholarship at IU (which is a full-ride+), with application for OOS students due 9/20. I know Kelley also has some merit money on their own.</p>

<p>Thanks. I will definitely look Into the scholarship. His UNweighted gpa is much lower, so that may impact his chances.</p>
