| My d got at nice merit scholarship from OCU and provided she keeps a certain gpa, it is renewable for 4 years. She knows that without this scholarship that she would not be attending OCU, so it really is a good incentive to work hard and keep up her grades. Also, she applied/got accepted to the Honors college, which gives her additional points toward her gpa, so that helps out, too. To help with the rest of the cost (after additional scholarships,etc) we did get a PLUS loan that we will begin making payments on as soon as the money is disbursed, so my d will not graduate with a ton of debt (but we will...of course, we are better able to pay!) |
