It’s not full ride. It’s full tuition. All I can tell you from our school: 2 students with about 99% similar stratospheric stats, both accepted EA, got the $10k one. One “lobbied” heavily–sent extra essays, showed great interest, etc. The other one didn’t do anything extra. I think the only way to get full ride is either all FA or a combination of Merit and FA. The scholarships are awarded by Faculty Committee upon, I guess, recommendations from the AdCom.
