FCS conference scholarship levels

Don't know of a site to see this information and don't think it is disclosed. From experience and observations I'm confident there are MANY schools that don't fund the full 63 limit.

Exactly. I doubt all MEAC schools fund 63 schollys - they are likely closer to the 57 "bowl counter status"

I know the MEAC has a 54 scholarship minimum rule. Mississippi Valley State was dropped by Mississippi State because MVSU was only giving the equivalent of 36 scholarships. Not sure if NC A&T is back up to speed, they were under NCAA sanctions and were down to 30 scholarships not that long ago, then up to 45, so I'm not sure where they are at.

The MEAC allows 63, but no MEAC school offers 63.

Interesting, I didn't know that. Source?

No one hates the MEAC more than the MEAC, haha.

Duquesne's Game Notes say they are at 37 this year. http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/...0140903aaa.pdf

I asked the NEC office once about how many scholarships each school was giving; they said they don't give out that information.

In 2015, A&T will offer the full 63. Right now, we are at roughly 90%.

also, Murray State offers 63 or close to it.

We're below the min. I also don't know if that rule is really enforced, however.

Nova is always below the 63 number, playing with 58 and trying to make up the 5 with preferred walk-ons that qualify for financial aid or parents who can pay the full $60,000 with the promise of a scholarship if they earn it later on. It stinks.

From what I understand of DelState and Savannah State, it's not enforced.

FCS Independent UNC-C is transitioning to Conference USA this season so We (Elon) spotted them 11 Scholly's
