Set

Read a random definition: contumax

A quick definition of Set:

A set is when you schedule something to happen at a certain time. For example, you might set a date for a party or set a time for a meeting. In some cases, like with a bill of exchange, a set refers to multiple parts that make up one whole thing.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Set, when used as a verb, means to schedule or arrange.

For example, you can set a meeting with your boss for next week or set a reminder on your phone to call your friend on their birthday.

In the context of a bill of exchange, a set refers to a bill that is drawn in several parts. These parts, when combined, form one bill. For instance, a foreign bill of exchange may be drawn in three parts, and each part is called a set. When all three sets are presented together, they form one complete bill.

For instance, if a company in the United States wants to pay a supplier in Japan, they may use a bill of exchange. The supplier in Japan would receive the bill in three parts, and they would need to present all three sets to their bank to receive payment.

@windyMagician: not at all. Michigan is also very generous with aid, so if you get enough it makes perfect sense to take it.

I’m sure you’ll get good merit aid though. Look at Michigan’s 509 report. They’re very generous.
