Your state's public flagship
University of Kentucky
The in-state tuition gap is the flagship's biggest draw — most in-state families pay far less than the out-of-state sticker. Average net price after aid runs about $18,851/yr. Admission odds depend on your student's GPA and test scores, not which high school they attend.
Source: IPEDS admissions, tuition & enrollment + College Scorecard net price. Flagship = the state's primary public research university.

Kentucky's public scholarships
Kentucky's KEES award is unusual: you bank money every year you keep your grades up, then add a one-time test bonus. No income limit on the base or test award.
Kentucky banks a scholarship for each year you keep a 2.5+ GPA — bigger for higher GPAs — plus a one-time ACT/SAT bonus. (Free/reduced-lunch students can add AP/IB supplements.)
