<li>Full ride: tuition, books, room/board, stipend:
United States Air Force Academy
Untited States Naval Academy</li>
</ol>
<p>Full tuition:
NROTC at ERAU</p>
<ol>
<li>University of Georgia
Foundation Fellowship</li>
</ol>
<p>14,000k/yr for out of state w/Out of state tuition waiver. For comparison, total cost of tuition/room/board/books = 11k. So basically, full ride plus 3k/yr. for living expenses. In-state students get pretty much the same deal, but HOPE covers a lot of it. Also, if you have any outside merit scholarships they get turned into cash.</p>
<p>In addition, 9k for travel-study, 1.75k for research, free spring break trips every year w/other Foundation Fellows to locales such as South Korea, Egypt, Cuba, Antarctica, and the Galapagos. Also, free Maymester in Australia or New Zealand after freshman year.</p>
<p>These trips are awesome. For example, this year my class is going to Washington DC and NYC to meet with Clarence Thomas, Paul Begala, and others. Fancy dinners on K Street, performances on Broadway, etc.</p>
<p>Other benefits include weekly dinner seminars with visiting professors and/or some of the best ones at the university, mentoring programs, library, etc. For example, we just had a retreat at this awesome resort where we discussed past travels and basically just bonded for a weekend. Also, all the benefits of the already awesome UGA Honors Program like priority registration and honors housing are included.</p>
<p>And finally the most important one: A true community of scholars from a wide variety of backgrounds. There is no other scholarship I know of that cultivates this kind of intimate networking and friendliness. At a large state university, having this kind of network of support and advice as a resource is invaluable.</p>
<p>For anyone looking for a high-quality (and money-saving!) alternative to the so-called "name brands", I really can't recommend this program highly enough. Check it out at <a href="http://www.uga.edu/honors/fellows%5B/url%5D">www.uga.edu/honors/fellows</a></p>
