I don't think they waive it automatically anymore, but I could be wrong. Give these guys a call:

State wants her to take a visit soon. She gotten letters from 37 other schools so far. We live in Memphis and her school send 6 to 8 kids to State.
She should get it. 27 was the magic number when I applied, but that's also not factoring in a 4.0.
I went to school with people from Memphis with similar #'s and they all had scholarships.

One alum parent will qualify her for half of the out of state waiver automatically. If her mother is alum also it's full waiver.
She should get more than that though. Make sure and get the application filled out early so they can offer her some scholarships.

When I started in '05, a 24 qualified for instate tuition. At some point while I was there, instate tuition was offered to everyone from Memphis. That may have changed now, but you should give the scholarship office a call.
Thanks I called today due to her grades and ACT and me being alum,her out of state is waived. The young lady in admissions was very helpful and it looks like my daughter will get a lot money that we thought. Thanks for the link.
No problem. Those guys are very helpful with that sort of stuff, but most parents don't realize there are so many resources available. At one point there was link off of the MSU Student Portal that allowed you to fill out one application, and apply for all of the departmental scholarships available for that particular major. Not sure if that's still the case, but it's worth exploring. Will save some time.
That would only apply to scholarships offered through MSU though.
