Realisitcally, in 3 more years, I could be full pay for Michigan.

No guaranteed scholarship cash to UM? Is there any chance that Hypo would immediately head to grad school after undergrad? If the scholarship at Kalamazoo is guaranteed with a 2.5 that's incredible. Eldest and Middle needed to keep somewhere in a 3.2-3.4 range to keep their scholarships.
Eldest's dream school was Michigan, and was admitted with a $5K scholarship and some grants, etc five years ago. He wrote the financial aid department and told him that and that other schools offered a full ride scholarship and asked if they could do anything else for him? Of course the economy in Michigan five years ago was lousy and he was OOS but perhaps since Halo is in state they could do more for him? Would think it was worth him asking if he wants to go to Michigan?
