Whoa- I had no idea that’s how it worked. I, too, thought it was all or nothing, either you get it or not. Sounds more like the Byrd scholarship wherein they rank every nominee in the state and move down the list until they run out of money.

That is odd, too, because, how do they know how much money they have to pass out given the incomig freshman deciding between public v private schools? What about students who drop out and do not take their final years of grants? Can you check back each year?
