Yea, that is a bit fishy... not surprising.

What, no athletes getting a full ride?  I guess that would count as a scholarship even though it's coming out of the school's pockets.

The following is an estimated breakdown of tuition waivers for 2008-2009 .

Waiver Type        Average Per Student   Total Number of Waivers    Amount of Waivers Granted   
Foreign Students$5566513$2,855,848
Graduate Students$54311240$6,735,326
WICHE Waivers$538821$113,154
Cultural Diversity $3635364$1,349,100

Misc Waivers$862371$319,859
National Guard $774216$167,294
Senior Citizen Waivers  $4023$1,206

Average Waiver, per student receiving a waiver: $3597


Notes:

As of 2009, 858 graduate students receive graduate assistantships which include tuition waivers.  This is 40% of graduate students.
We do not believe this takes into account various scholarships including the cultural diversity scholarships, merit-based scholarships, and fellowships, etc.

See Documents on tuition waivers granted to students in North Dakota’s university system and North Dakota college presidents defend tuition breaks, from the Fargo Forum for more information.
