<p>My daughter is applying for a major specific scholarship. The asst department head made it clear that they ‘own’ her if they give her a department scholarship and she must take the courses in the schedule he designs. There are also certain meeting for scholarship winners, work in the department and other requirements. She has to try out for the scholarship yearly, and it may be that in future years she’ll find it isn’t worth the small department scholarship when she can make that much money working a job, but for freshmen year I think it is worth it.</p>
