If I go to Henderson State with a 25, I can get $5000 a year plus if I receive the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Scholarship that’s an additional $5000 a year so that means that for all four years there, $40,000 would be automatically paid. Sounds good huh? But Henderson is located in Arkadelphia which is a very small town with nothing to do. It’s nearby the capital and a growing city, Hot Springs, but it’s just not next door. Oh, and Arkadelphia is only 1 hr 30 min away from where I stay
Arkansas State University is located in Jonesboro, AR, which has tons to do. It’s located in the delta, however. If I attend ASU, I could get the Arkansas Lottery Scholarship which is $5000 and I could receive up to $6000 which adds up to about $11,000 per year, $44,000 for four years. The only thing I hate about it is that I can’t come home whenever I realy want too because of gas because its 4 hours away from my hometown. That’s why I’m leaning toward Henderson: it’s small, close to home, but doesn’t have a “surrounding life” outside the campus… Please help me…
