[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many students are in vs out of state? My understanding was that other states prioritize in state students more than Virginia. [/quote] UVa, W&M, and VPI each have (for decades now) agreed with the Commonwealth that they will try to reserve 2/3rds of 1st year admissions slots for Virginians. The exact percentage depends on actual matriculations, rather than college offers, so each school will have slight variation up or down from that 2/3rds ratio varying from year to year. UVa Engineering has grown substantially in recent decades and is more than double the size it used to be, although still visibly smaller than VPI Engineering. VPI also has grown some. W&M has not grown very much. UVa is MUCH smaller than some other states so-called flagship public. W&M is even smaller. That said, a range of Engineering degrees also are offered at CNU, GMU, ODU, & VCU, which all are VA publics.[/quote]
