I did know a guy who was on a neighboring-state subsidized grant for a nuclear engineering major... and only taking classes in humanities while summering abroad in France.
Not sure how that ended for him, but hopefully poorly?
(The program was originated as that state didn't have a NucE program, so found it cheaper to pay them to go somewhere else than run its own)
- MiroF 7y agoUnsure why you would hope something ended poorly for someone else.
- ethbro 7y agoBecause he faffed around France for multiple years while choosing not to pursue the major expected by the program that helped fund his attendence in the first place? I've got no sympathy for someone who deliberately makes unethical choices.

- beerandt 7y agoIt's called Academic Common Market, and it only offers in-state rates to out of state students. (There's no direct scholarship or money, although sometimes unrelated scholarships are also awarded.) It's not really subsidized any more than regular in-state tuition, since it's a reciprocal program between states.
