Those are the average athletic awards, not the average baseball awards. If the school has football, basketball, or the 4 women’s sports that require full scholarships, that is going to bring an average way way up (see Alabama) Also, you don’t know how many are getting athletic awards as opposed to need awards or merit awards. The list has how many receive scholarships, and at Birmingham Southern, it is 99%. Tuition was also listed as $30k plus R&B, so $18k is only a half scholarship. Not too high at all.
But thanks for the list! I didn’t know if my daughter got a good award from her school or not, and now I know it is exactly average (although this list is a little old as tuition and r&b as reported was lower than it actually is by several thousand).
