...Why didn't I get a scholarship?

@ctl987 We are too fortunate to get a need based money. I also realized I said “full ride” when a more accurate description would be full tuition and $2500 in addition money. She was not an NMS. Her breakdown was something like 700M and 650CR.

@mommdc She did not apply to Temple. She visited 'Bama and was impressed with the Engineering program but just thought the school was OK, and wasn’t thrilled with the surrounding environment.
