And our in-state schools look for out of state students for increased out of state tuition.


Then maybe they should accept more. Our instate schools cost more than many OOS schools. It's crazy.

I went to UVA as out-of-state over 30 years ago, and even then I knew that my tuition status was partly what got me in.

I hope so - every school but UMCP on my DCs list says they are need-blind.
