ILLINOIS TUITION WAIVER??? no way...

[Packer]

This may seem like a stupid question, but why would the national board give 4 yr or 3 yr scholarships to Illinois instate residents to attend an Illinois Instate college since they can just accesses the Illinois Tuition Waiver?

The scholarships are a recruiting tool. The AROTC scholarship can be applied to R&B also, therefore the cadet does get a benefit. There is also the stipend.

There is no doubt there is something in this for the school also. Either Federal tax breaks, concessions, etc.

Of course, you have to remember this is Illinois where 4 of the last 5 Governors are in jail!
