I just assumed that most parents with college kids that worked and/or were paying their own college costs would just hand over the $300 to their kids. I'm helping one and the other has a scholarship, but I had planned on giving it to them. Now I have to tell them that our rebate is half what I thought. I don't know how I missed that stipulation! Ugh!!
