<p>When we visted for the open house this fall we were told the minimun was $250 …</p>
<p>but the amount doesn’t really matter. Any academice scholarship qualified out of staters for in-state tuition. It is part of the reason applications are up and USC is attracting quality students.</p>
<p>We were also assured that in-state and out of state students compete against each other - they are held to the same standards in admissions.
I don’t believe there is a quota on numbers of oos students as there is in other states (UNC- cough, cough).</p>
