Re: The Official 2013 Oswego State Post/Pre-Season Thread - "Love All, Serve All"...
I know it was a few thousand as of last year. Ask Norm to pull it up. Hes done so many times, but it was still a pretty big margin. But now with zero FA grant Oswegos cost of tuition just went up, big time for Non-Americans. Thus you see 7 Americans on their roster which as I said earlier is almost as many as the past 4 to 5 years combined.
From the Oz website...

Oswego has moved to a Merit based incentive program - again from the college website:
Merit Scholarships
Freshman and transfer students should complete the application for admission as early as possible for the following fall term. No additional scholarship forms are required. Admission applications received by Jan. 15 receive priority for scholarship consideration. Over one-third of the entering class received merit-based scholarship money, with an average renewable award of $2,400. All freshman awards are renewable with a minimum 3.0 GPA.

These programs typically include: four units each of English and social studies, along with seven units combined of math, science and two units of foreign language.
The middle fifty percent of the GPA and SAT or ACT of students awarded scholarships is as follows:
