[quote=Anonymous]OP, the universities will list what percent of TE applicants actually get the award (and even then, may not be 100% of tuition). A lot of the popular schools - BU, Tulane, AU, GW, Syracuse etc. have waaaay more incoming TE applicants than outgoing so the odds of getting a TE scholarship are really low bc they try to balance imports with exports.

I work for a school on that list and have been through this with all three of my kids. It's a good program but proceed very very very carefully. if you click on each school on the link you gave, you will get the number/percent of students who get the scholarship and usually a blurb about how competitive it is. For example, less than 10% of students who apply for TE at Villanova get it, and "Tuition Exchange is a competitive, merit-based award at Villanova University. Villanova gives preference to upper-class students in awarding TE Scholarships."

Occidental? They get between 90 and 100 applicants for TE and award a whopping two TE scholarships per year. Someone mentioned Bucknell, and they don't offer the award to incoming freshman. Fordham? 150 applicants for 20 spots. [/quote]
