Any suggestions of good schools which might offer a scholarship? While Pia (the sponsor) is currently living in Norfolk, VA, her husband is scheduled to be transferred in 2015 or 2016 to wherever the Coast Guard sees fit to send him next.

Thanks.
Golf scholarships are highly political. It's all who you know. Best choice is to go to the PGA show in ORL in January they have all the schools who offer PGM programs all lined up in a row. Good luck.
