It would have to get agreement from the state and likely have to pay for all property and forego state funds. That isn't happening.

Exactly. UVA’s buildings and properties are owned by The Commonwealth. And the state legislature would have to approve 50% OOS.

Is it law stating 2/3 in-state? Some sources say it is a state mandate, other places say it is optional and UVA doesn't have to, but chooses to.

It isn't law. But if it varies significantly from this there would be funding and political repercussions.

When states go to 50%+ (Michigan, Alabama, Vermont), it is really an recognition that state funding is not sufficient and the school can enroll more OOS students to maintain its financial footing and reputation.

Go private to admit whoever they want. Less entitlement from nova moms thinking that their average 4.0 kid should get in uva.

Why? UVA doesn’t need more average kids and they definitely don’t need the entitlement because of “taxes”

I don't think UVA is losing sleep over the "entitlement from nova moms."

Harvard, although private, takes public funds.

Harvard doesn't get funding for students. It gets paid for services rendered.

Yet nova moms don’t feel entitled to Harvard.

Is everyone forgetting any community college student with a 3.0 gets GUARANTEED ADMISSION to UVA?
