@pickleberry7 , yes the FL Legislature theoretically could drop the Benacquisto program from funding or curtail it each year, but that does not seem likely absent a severe downturn in Florida’s economy. FL is dedicated to raising the stature of its public universities, and Benacquisto is part of that program. Still, you need to consider the risk, however slight. FSU, UCF and USF all have large scholarship programs of their own that would apply to NMFs if the state program were defunded. UF does not but even there it is just inconceivable to me that the Legislature and/or UF would not “grandfather” in existing Benacquisto students if there were any substantial changes to the Benacquisto scholarship.
