My grandson got a full scholarship to a smaller church affiliated university. Two major universities turned him down on athletic scholarships because they didn't offer track scholarships and offered minimal scholarships academic merit wise. Actually I'm glad they did due to the prevailing PC on larger campuses.
His long term goal is to be an Orthopedic Surgeon. He does have the brains as well as the fine motor coordination it requires. My other grandson a few years till graduation will likely head to a smaller technical college for Civil Engineer career. He'll likely go there on an academic scholarship. Both boys are working part time jobs as well. To get scholarships from what my daughter tells me takes a lot of time and advanced planning as to what schools offer what.
