Thanks everyone.  This is OP.  Yes, I googled, but something in the above link (copied below) is not clear to me.  Can someone explain?  Note, I am a fed, but not a lawyer, so could not interpret this ... Thank you!

Other Ways to Qualify for In-State Tuition
If you are a student at a public institution and you do not establish domicile in Virginia, [b]you might still qualify for in-state tuition if you are: a student[/b] who lives outside Virginia but who works or [b]whose parent works in Virginia;[/b] a student participating in a degree program included in the Academic Common Market; a high school student who is in a dual-enrollment program at a community college; a University of Virginia's College at Wise student who resides in Kentucky and who lives within 50 miles of the University of Virginia's College at Wise; or a student attending college through a special arrangement contract entered by your employer and the institution you plan to attend. The institution may charge eligible students a contract rate higher than the actual in-state tuition rate but lower than the out-of-state tuition rate. To learn more about how your circumstances affect your eligibility to establish domicile, please contact the college or university you plan to attend.[/quote]

OP, new poster here. When my DC was looking at UVA, we found that the admissions office was pretty responsive about questions and would reply to e-mails. I'd e-mail or phone them and ask, quoting the section you quote above. I think this is going to go case by case so I'd just spend the time calling or e-mailing UVA admissions with this question rather than asking here. You can't know if your specific situation is going to apply or not, based on what's above or based on what any other family has done; go straight to UVA to ask. Hope they are helpful.[/quote]
