<p>The description under the Presidential Scholarship reads:
“A first-time freshman student who meets the December 15 scholarship priority deadline, has a 32–36 ACT or 1400–1600 SAT score (critical reading and math scores only) and at least a 3.5 cumulative GPA will be selected as a Presidential Scholar and will receive the value of tuition or $95,800 over four years ($23,950 per year).”</p>
<p>So is the scholarship just the value of tuition or is it $23,950 per year? because the latter would cover tuition/room/board and leave the student with $3000 extra</p>
<p>Tuition only…Tuition/Room/Board for 4 years is much more than the $95,800 quoted above. That $95K is OOS tutition for 4 years. If you were looking at UA’s website and found the estimated cost as about 20K for an OOS student, note that is PER SEMESTER, and has a lot of items added in.</p>

<p>???</p>
<p>what are you looking at that you think the latter would cover that much??</p>
<p>On their website, their tuition/fees estimate only covers one semester, so make sure you double their numbers.</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone that responded, I see now that on the Bama website the estimates are only given for one semester </p>
