I think I read somewhere that 30 was the cutoff for full tuition and 29 ACT for 50 percent tuition reduction for OOS.

This is more than likely to be incorrect. FSU’s scholarship page does not list the break points of OOS tuition or the full tuition waiver.

They do list a NMF scholarship which is in-state tuition plus $2,400 per year plus the NMF scholarship.

National Merit Finalist Scholarship
This scholarship is available to non-Florida residents listing FSU as their first choice with the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. The award includes a waiver of the out-of-state portion of tuition cost, the $9,600 University Freshman Scholarship, and any National Merit Scholarship. The total value of this scholarship is over $69,000 over four years and guarantees admission into FSU’s University Honors Program.

Given that a NMF winner will score well above a 32 on the ACT and Alabama only offers a full tuition waiver with a 32 ACT or higher, I highly doubt that FSU will be full tuition waivers to students scoring a 30 ACT unless they are football or basketball players.
