So, I've posted on the finical aid section before. Basically, my parents aren't willing to pay anything for college, they make a little less than 200k a year, and there will be four kids (including me) going to college at once.
So, I've been in contact with Princeton and Georgetown's ROTC offices and they said when my name pops up on their list they will accept me for a scholarship, and the officers at both schools said they would pull some strings with admissions offices to enhance my chances of getting admitted into these universities. (My stats would've been competive enough for consideration even without ROTC).
So, assuming these scholarships will cover tutition, will I still get institutional aid from the school (we qualified for about $40,000). The aid plus the scholarship would make my attendance free (in return for military service)... But this doesn't seem right. Can this happen?
(I understand I will probably have to set my sights lower as far as school goes, but I really want to do everything I can to go to these schools, regardless of what my parents will pay).
