Alabama 2nd to last amongst large public school in this category, only in front of the University of Utah (average debt of $10,557).

I'd assume based on above that it's pretty low here too.
When you have huge a huge OOS population and expensive OOS tuition (even with the high grant aid), this is going to happen. Just a gross system and one that the University has gone way above and beyond exploiting.

Yeah that part of the rating seems pretty circular considering the two above it.

And when schools have a high scholarship ratio it plays into the two parts of the methodology quite nicely for them

You shut your whore mouth, George! I've benefited from that system. I'm OOS and my daughter pays nearly the same as an in-state kid because she busted her arse and had a 4.6 GPA and an SAT score north of 1400. She loves Alabama and won't have shitloads of student loan debt when she gets out, thanks to that system.
I am amazed at the number of kids from places like the New England area, Chicago, and the West Coast that are coming to Bama because of those scholarships. A lot of those kids could go anywhere they wanted but they come to Bama. I'm even more amazed at the OOS kids from far away that come and have to pay the OOS amount because the DON"T have a scholarship, but they come anyway.

Ohio State has this and they rank pretty well.
