Settling the Vandy Baseball Scholarship Controversy

Cost of attendance per Collegecalc.org is at the bottom of this post. The long and short of it is, even with Vandy granting money to all students (including athletes), a 60% "need based scholarship" is only $500 cheaper than Alabama without scholarship. I'll assume that everyone receives a waiver on the non-resident fee.
I won't apologize for Vandy having the best degree, having money to help kids pay for college, or being in the best city.
In-State
Vandy $58,442
Bama $23,806
AUB $22,604
UT $21,900
UK $21,438
USC $20,719
UGA $20,424
LSU $20,177
Mizzou $19,647
Ark $18,240
TAMU $18,202
OM $17,526
UF $16,863
MSU $16,619
Non-Resident
Vandy $58,442
UT $40,090
AUB $39,116
UGA $38,634
USC $38,431
Bama $38,306
UF $38,080
LSU $37,895
TAMU $34,822
Mizzou $33,996
UK $32,520
Ark $29,496
OM $28,494
MSU $26,807

Vandy is #1......at something

Andy only does 60% needs based? Ivy League and Duke do 100%.
Glad to see Vandy doing something. I was poor as dirt growing up, really wanted to go to Vandy but had no chance because of the expense.

Every school has money to give to kids. Private schools have to give away tons of money otherwise attendance would be extremely low.

Wow! UT doesn't like non-residents very much.

Quick math question for the Vandy fans... what's 60 + 33?
Pretty sure it's 93. Otherwise known as the total amount of cost of attendance covered for a scholarship baseball player that gets the minimum baseball scholarship allowed (33%) and the 60% that all Vandy students get.
Now, I'm no math whiz but I'm pretty sure that $58,442 X (1 - 0.93) = $4,090.94... that's also known as what a Vanderbilt baseball player would be asked to pay out of pocket after baseball scholarship and other funds provided by the university.
