how sure are you of your information? many of us were given different information at info sessions from what you are stating. Most were given the fact that any scholarship above $250 a semester ($500 year) would reduce OOS tuition to instate levels.
Also, if this is fact the case, there are Honors College scholarships awarded outside of what you listed, including the S Carolina College Scholarship of $1400 a year which “given as a matter of course to all out of state students who have no other scholarship support”.This would, in turn, make all out of state students in the Honors College eligible for the reduced tuition rate.
TheFiveofUs:
the number of various scholarship awards are listed at sc.edu/financialaid/factbook<em>freshmen</em>scholarship_0708.html.This will give you the actual # of McKissicks,Coopers,etc. There’s lots of them.
Departmental scholarships are listed at sc.edu/financialaid/departmental.html
S was sent a letter ,after he made his enrollment deposit ,from his intended major department listing their scholarships and how to apply for them,it was a separate application.Each departments process may be different so its a good idea to search around that list and the department’s webpages.
I would verify what level of scholarship makes a student eligible for instate tuition rates with the admissions or financial aid office,since differnt people seem to have different info here…</p>
