What scholarship are you reading? Federal aid is based on economic need.

But to clarify a point, some schools value various things besides giving someone a helping hand--one of them is called diversity of opinion.

Besides, scholarships are not the same as grants--they are given by the benefactor, they aren't owed to anyone.
