<p>I agree that the last minute change wasn’t deliberate, but was likely done out of fear of too many scholarship awards. However, a cynic could draw a conclusion that having the old info on the site brought in add’l apps, and then a change was made late in the season.</p>
<p>If a school doesn’t want the info that is currently on its website to be used, then that info should be taken down with a note that announcements will be made later. </p>
<p>Yes, by springtime, UAH will see that their high-stats yield will be low. They were offering more than Bama as a way to steal-away some of those high stats kids. Now, by offering less or a similar offer, many students will logically choose the Flagship so as to have a more full college experience. </p>
<p>With a lower high stats yield, who knows what UAH will do. Yes, they may tweak their offers for the following app season, but it will be too late to salvage this one. </p>
<p>I think a wiser decision would have been to keep the old scholarships in place for STEM and business majors (since those are UAH’s strengths), and to give the lower scholarships to those with other majors that do less for the university. They should have also eliminated the offers to int’ls, since frankly, int’ls can’t do most of the internships/co-ops or get hired by most of the companies in Cummings Research Park anyway.</p>
