Anyone up on them for current times at the u of a?

Why I'm asking is a relative got awarded a great scholarship just two years ago, his brother now a senior in hs got notice that he would get 1k scholarship. The younger brother has equal (not 100% on what exactly but if not 4 then right at it) gpa and scored a point higher on his act (either a 30 or 31). Both have good leadership/extracurricular activities that would look good on their apps.

Have things changed that much in 2 years? Is there a weird sibling thing with scholarships or what?

It changes from year to year based on how many people they take. My brother and I had the same act and GPA when applying but he got a full ride while I only got the half ride (University scholarship I believe). He went in '98 while I went in '99. I was so pissed at the time.
