If your child receives a type 7 scholarship, are they able to also use it at out-of-state colleges that have inter-state compacts to provide in-state tuition to residents in those participating states? Or are they limited to using the scholarship in their state of residence (unless they convert it to a type 2)? We are WI residents and get in-state tuition at MN public universities and a few other states, for example. I am just wondering if my child could utilize the scholarship at those colleges that offer AFROTC that are part of our inter-state alliance that offers in-state tuition? (or some states offer discounted tuition in the alliance)?
In the other thread about benefits to veterans, the poster brought up MI State as an example of a university that offers in-state tuition to dependents of military veterans. Could my child use her type 7 scholarship at that university or one that offers a similar benefit? Somebody mentioned IA State as possibly having a similar situation, and that university was on my dd's list. My husband retired from ADAF, but also served for about 8 years in the IA ANG and dd was actually born in IA, so wondering if IA State could still be an option for her...
Additionally, I know she can convert it to 3 years of Type 2. If your child already has the equivalent of a year of college credit through dual enrollment and would be considered sophomore status, could she use a type 2 scholarship immediately? or would she still have to wait a year? I am guessing she will have around 30 hours of dual credit at the end of this year (her senior year HS) as she has been taking dual enrollment classes at the 2 UW Universities near us.
Thanks for helping us navigate options!. She received a congressional nom yesterday and type 7 scholarship today, so it has been a great 2 days for her!
