<p>DD returned yesterday from three days at UR where she competed as one of 84 students for these 45 Richmond Scholar awards. 45/84 = 53.6% of these students will receive at least full tuition. The remaining 39 students will receive the $15,000/yr Presidential Scholarship. Financial aid will be available for those scholars who qualify for any remaining need. </p>

<p>Certainly, this is one of the most generous merit scholarship programs. In addition, UR is a breathtaking, famously beautiful campus with a cafeteria rated in the top 5 by Princeton Review. UR has much to offer.</p>
