Don’t have time to read the entire thread, but let me add University of Cincinnati to the list of schools that offer free ride plus R&B and $1500 for other expenses (laptop, travel abroad etc.) to NM winners. UC has only been doing this for about 3 years so is not on many people’s radar yet, but the number of NMFs on campus has been steadily increasing. They also have honors dorms/floors and MUCH new construction has been completed on campus. It looks like a completely different place, with extremely interesting buildings that have won accolades from newspapers and architects around the country. Off-campus areas have been rebuilt as well, as the university recognizes its responsibility as an urban entity.

Besides the well-known Conservatory and the School of Design, Art, Architecture & Planning, the Engineering and Business schools are also quite good.
