This is very interesting...I wonder whether they'd consider the in-state/out-of-state tuition factor when they place you. Also, do the Evans Scholars bypass the college admissions process. For example, I went to the University of Colorado, where I believe most of the Evans Scholars were from Colorado. But what if they put Northwestern as a top choice and Colorado as their 4th? Northwestern would be significantly more difficult to get into and more expensive than in-state tuition at Colorado...
The Evans Scholars house is in the University Hill district of Boulder, where most of the Greek housing it. It blends in with the rest of the fraternity houses.
On a side note, in Massachusetts we have the Francis Ouimet Scholarship for golf caddies and I think that it is up to $7,500 a year. They don't have a house, etc., as the Evans Scholars do, but it is a pretty respectable scholarship.
