I'm researching the CDS for various smaller schools for DS '17 and came upon one that says, under line H2A, that the "average dollar amount of institutional non-need-based athletic scholarships and grants awarded to students in line p" is $15,000. This is a small school with no football, though they do have basketball. Are they really saying that their average sports scholarship is $15,000? If a student has need based aid, does that stack, generally?
FWIW, around their undergrad enrollment is around 1500, and 130 have non need based athletic scholarships. They have 26 students on their male and female basketball rosters, and 9 on their volleyball roster (the other big scholarship sport). So I'm squinting at the data trying to figure out if I can guess how much $$$ is left for sports like cross country and track. It'd be nice to have a sense of whether this school is in reach at all financially before we put too much effort into it.
Thanks all for any advice you can give!
