[quote=Anonymous]For the Virginia schools, wouldn't you still be considered in-state, presuming you continue to pay VA taxes? In-state is the main admissions boost; the out-of-state grades and test scores of admitted students to get into CWM and UVA are way above those of in-state students. You will have a better idea of whether she is even competitive for those schools in her junior year before you move. Not everybody is. Everything else being even, colleges are always looking for students who have had interesting experiences and time at an international school might help, even though it will be less than a year when she applies. Balance that out against any social difficulties she may face moving as a junior. Military kids and many of the kids at international schools are used to moving all the time. If this is her first move, it could be hard.[/quote]
