[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from a public HS in WI in 1996. Sure Madison was considered a good option but the high flyers were all looking out of state. There used to be a thing called the Governor’s Scholarship that offered full rides to top students based on class rank to keep them in state. The number of awards per school was based on school size. My school had 4 awards - our Valedictorian and salutatorian went out of state, the next 2 took the scholarship to attend Madison. I was ranked 15 or so (out of about 400) and got an almost full ride to GW.[/quote]
