So we finally saw a little bit of the "wait and see if the offers are sweetened" phenomena. VT had offered a $5k/yr scholarship previously, and replaced it with a $7k/yr one.

That still probably isn't enough to top the $5k/yr scholarship Maryland has offered -- not with in-state tuition. So really he should turn down their offer as well as A&M's as I don't think they're still in the running (Michigan turned him down, GT waitlisted).

He still can't decide between UMD and Purdue though. Visited there again, which only reinforced his positive impressions. He shadowed an honors student at UMD and liked it ok, but not nearly as much as Purdue. But it is a heck of a lot cheaper and he knows others who've committed there.

(It really just sucks that the one school where he really wants to go is the one which offered absolutely no money. :| )
