This. If your kid is a NMF, the Benacquisto currently provides a full free ride plus some other perks at FL public universities.
University of New Mexico also gives a great award for NMF. @WayOutWestMom can describe this one.
In both cases, these colleges send kids to medical schools. They really do.
So, if your kid is a NMF, there are some great awards out there at some colleges. Find those if finances are a serious consideration. These awards do not take your incomes into consideration at all.
