<p>Also, keep in mind the distinction between full-ride and full-tuition. My ds received major scholarship offers at most of the schools he applied to. At all of the schools with the exception of 1, the scholarships typically covered tuition. Cost of room, board, fees, books, etc can leave quite a gap. Some schools have a lot of fees, etc. some schools cost of housing is very high, etc.</p>
<p>Also pay attention as to whether or not you can stack scholarship $$. Some schools actually reduce scholarship offers if additional scholarships are earned. Others don’t have a problem with it. Our ds will be attending basically free ride, but it is bc he has multiple scholarships that stack without reduction. </p>
<p>But the caveat is that he will have to maintain at least a 3.0 GPA. </p>
