Financial aid question for BGSU

Hi there,

The son of a friend of mine has just accepted a place at BGSU for sports management. She told me that they have given her son a free ride- they have given him 100% financial aid. Could this be possible? I thought colleges never give 100%? I am trying to find out since my son is interested in applying but due to my financial situation he is applying to a state school. (Neither of us live in Ohio.)

Any help would really be appreciated. Also- from a current student- what are living expenses like there? Is it possible to give a rough idea of what $ he might need per week and also cost of books?

Thanks :)
