<p>Texasdaddy-it sounds like your son would also qualify for the National Buckeye Scholarship which pays for the out of state tuition surcharge. I have a sophmore at OSU now who has a lot of merit scholarships. I just checked the OSU website and itt looks like they have reduced the amount of money awarded for the same merit scholarships from a few years ago. Let’s hope the swim money will make up that difference.</p>
