Reply to "How rare is a full ride?"

Very rare, but they do exist. I have heard parents say..."My son is playing baseball at State U and he's on a full ride scholarship". In the back of your mind you’re thinking, "Wow, this kid must be good!" The are not lying to you but they conveniently neglect to tell you the scholarship is academic or athletic/academic blended. They lead you to believe their son is on a full ride baseball scholarship. Personally I would rather see my son get an academic full ride than a baseball full ride.
