The merit scholarship offer from Clemson was literally laugh-out-loud funny, while CofC came through with 80% of tuition. Add the state sponsored merit scholarship and it's well under 10k out of pocket... a fantastic deal. And hey, it's Charleston.

The football success of Clemson has increased demand to the point that they don't even try to incentivize kids to attend. It's unfortunate since my daughter kind of wanted the whole rah-rah experience, but at the same time, the place really doesn't have much character as far as colleges go.
