ryan2288,

Given that several of my friends (I can immediately think of three) were accepted to UGA and still chose Georgia Southern because of scholarships, the recruitment is working quite well.

I disagree with your second point, as well. HOPE will cover the tuition, some fees, and one new book. Housing is not covered, and I know one student who chose not to attend Georgia Tech because of housing costs.

Your last point is correct. Georgia Southern is composed of mostly Georgians. Unlike UGA, however, the out-of-state tuition fees are merely twice the in-state fees, which already are not expensive.
