[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA has 3 types of instate applicants.  Those with legacy connections, high stat NOVA kids looking for a solid safety and first timers and URMs looking to take advantage of emerging woke admissions policies.

No. It’s one of the first choice in-state options for families that don’t want to waste $85k/year on private universities.[/quote]

My son was accepted to some higher ranked schools, but as Virginians it is getting very hard to justify paying an additional $50k or so per year for an undergraduate degree.[/quote]

Agreed - there really is no justification (unless you are loaded with money and an extra $50k is nothing to you).  However, I will say that there are a lot of OOS schools that make the cost comparable (or even less) than UVA if you are able to get merit.  [/quote]

Donut hole, merit only at much lower tier schools--none of the T20s so that is the choice we have to make $38k vs $85-90k.  [/quote]

Why does it have to be a T20?  There are tons of cheaper schools out there. [/quote]

Experience &outcomes make most T20s empirically worth it[/quote]

Disagree. No school is worth 80K. Ever. [/quote]
