There are so many schools out there today that are now offering scholarships for high school seniors. Many schools used to be more restricted in the amount of scholarships they handed out but due to the eoncomy being so bad it has forced many schools to start paying for the best students to attend.
Why would they do that do you ask? Well because if a university doesn’t keep up its repuation then it doesn’t have a leg to stand on. If the best students don’t have the money to attend, then the school has to figure out some way to keep these students from going elsewhere.
The academic world of scholarships is starting to look a lot like the athletic world of scholarships. This is the same practice that has been going on with exceptional high school athletes for some time. I don’t see this changing any time soon either.
