I've applied to a bunch of schools, written a boatload of essays, and now I have to decide if I want to write one more. I'm trying to decide whether to apply for the Ohio State Moritz Scholarship, which would give full tuition (and a small stipend, I believe). The extra essay is not my real concern, it's asking another person to write me a letter of recommendation. I really don't want to waste my time and theirs if I'm not even going to be competitive for the scholarship. My numbers are around 170 and 3.7. Do you think I have a shot?
Also, I've been accepted to some higher-ranked schools but they haven't offered me too much money. If I could get the Moritz scholarship I don't think I could pass it up. Any thoughts? I appreciate it!

Re: Ohio State Moritz Scholarship
You might also want to consider using the Moritz Scholarship to leverage the higher ranked schools to give you more money.
