<p>Can anyone tell me about merit aid for OOS students? What kind of stats are generally required to get at least half tuition (if they even have such a thing). How many full ride or full tuition scholarships do they give?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>CSU’s give little to no financial aid to OOS students, since they are public universities funded by California taxpayers. A small amount of merit aid may be available. <a href=“http://financialaid.calpoly.edu/_finaid/types_aid/scholarships.htm”>http://financialaid.calpoly.edu/_finaid/types_aid/scholarships.htm</a></p>
<p>No such thing as full-ride and half tuition. </p>
<p>While CSUs give little merit aid to OSS applicants, CalPoly gives sizable aid.
Check out the “Out Reach Scholarship”.<br>
Interesting, because CalPoly has declared it self impacted across all majors (i.e. is exempt from all CSU mandates designed to accomodate “service area” applicants).<br>
I wonder how state funded institution gets away with such nonsense???</p>
