[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, sorry about Duke, your son sounds incredibly capable and hopefully he can get accepted later. But getting a full scholarship at a school like UNC is no small feat. I know a young man who got into Duke, Yale, and Wharton last year but turned all of them down for the Morehead Cain scholarship at UNC (full ride). On the other hand I also know of a fine young woman who got into Princeton, Columbia, and got the Morehead Cain last year too, but turned all of those down to be a full-pay student at Duke. So, preference matters too if you have the ability to pay, but know that a full scholarship to UNC is a very good deal[/quote] This is a good point but it’s worth noting that the Morehead Cain is prestige in itself. It looks like OP’s son got another scholarship from UNC which might be more generic/not as well known. Morehead Cain is a big deal like UVA Jeffersons[/quote]
