That scholarship money to those out of state students could be spread even more to instate students, thus reducing their cost.
Any in-state student with halfway decent scores is getting some form of scholarship.

So, if you make a 25 on the ACT you will get $2000 per year. The estimate of annual cost per instate student is about $24K. AU gives out less and the cost are on par with UA. Again, it looks great on the USNWR standings by having those high out state students enroll (or pay them), but the mission of Alabama Schools is not limited to those kids with 25 or greater ACTs.

Maybe those kids with scores of less than 25 should set their sights lower. Maybe give AUM a look.

Probably should be. Too many kids are wasting time at universities when they'd be better served by attending technical or vocational institutions. The country's full of youngsters with degrees that won't do them any good at all. Highly skilled/paid professions are out in society begging for newcomers.
