Thanks Mommafrog! Yes, this is way to convoluted, the question is:why? Really does not have to be. I initially thought you had to do it by March ,but that was only for half tuition distinguished NMF award at OSU ( 4500 value). Did not do it then - I though he could wait to see if he can get this generic $2500 ( small chance as only 2500 out of 15000 get it and now thinking back he did his essay in like an hour, I did not realize this was for an award, only to become finalist which was given) and then make college selection.
As far as full rides - he refused to apply to schools that offerd full rides for it.
Should’ve called in February, but will try to call them on Monday. Though he probably did not get an award, so now we have to see if his top schools offer something still and what the deadline may be).
