OP says that [b]UVA would cost $65K per year. [/b]The only people who should be paying that much for UVA (or any school, really) are foreign students who are buying their way into the US, or rich people who can afford to pay full sticker. That is NOT what a middle-class person should be paying for college [/quote]

I think the fact that they can consider paying OOS or private tuition in general puts them above middle class. Just saying.[/quote]

No, she said $46,634 which is the UVA OOS rate - still a much better deal than LAC, SLACS and other institutions now at $72K a year.  OP - go with UVA - your child will have a much better chance at elite grad programs from there, plus UVA has its own great law school, Darden School, etc.  My DD is going thru the graduate application process now.  Her professors have been amazingly accessible and helpful with letters of recommendation.  We also have many relatives who went to Univ. of Miami.  We would never even consider it for DD, who was a top student.  Go read comments on Collegeconfidential.[/quote]

PP you are ignoring the cost of room and board.  The UVA out of state cost of attendance is currently $63,000.
