I saw a kid paraded on stage for getting 30K scholarship to Georgetown (FA, but why let the facts get in the way of a good story) but he was “choosing” the local 4 yr instead ,and the Princeton admit that got a similar scholarship, who was choosing the religious school for free. The high school was straight up selling these kids admission stories as merit awards. It was the first and last time I saw that happen. It was horrible.
