[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mi[quote=Anonymous][b]I was a National Merit Scholar and got a full-ride scholarship at my state's flagship school,[/b] including room and board. Where I'm from, we didn't do test prep. My parents didn't have college savings for me (we were working class). So it was a big deal.[/quote] What state flagship gives full rides to National Merit Scholars?![/quote] Alabama, Alaska, Idaho, Kentucky, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, and Oklahoma give full rides. Also Arizona State University and Texas A & M. (So not anywhere most DCUM parents would be caught dead in.) Less than full rides, but still substantial merit aid for NMF include: Arizona, USC, Kansas, Maine, Minnesota, and Vermont[/quote]
