I had to pay my son's tuition this week for RIT and his classes start around Aug. 24.  I was wondering how the scholarship for a "non-qualifying" athlete works.  Take the case of Diagne.  As far as I can figure out,, the NCAA has NOT determined if he is qualified to play at SU.  Now I figure that tuition is due for SU and classes should begin in the next week or two.  How does the school handle his situation.  Let him attend without paying until his case is decided.  If he is not qualified, does the school continue to let he attend (on scholarship or make him pay with lots of grant money)?  If it is a scholarship, does it count against the teams quota? Or do they encourage him to withdraw and go to a prep school?  I seem to remember some player was in a similar situation a few years back and SU didn't allow him to go to classes until his case is decided then he had to hustle to catch up when it was in in his favor.  How long do they wait?  How does it work for football since I assume they are already at practice.
