ereks mom Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 He was awarded a full-tuition scholarship (approximate value: $60,000) at the private, Christian school where he visited and interviewed a week & a half ago. BUT... he has decided NOT to attend that school. He has chosen another private, Christian school a little closer to home. His admissions counselor from that school called this afternoon to say that they've completed his financial aid package and will be mailing it out to us ASAP. She gave me a few figures, though, and IF I understood what she said, it appears that with that package plus his "outside scholarships", he will have the equivalent of a full ride!! I'm scared to believe it, but I am cautiously optimistic! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
