[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Montgomery County and really like it, MS- age kids are happy in good schools, we like our house ...

but I keep looking at in-state tuition for very good Virginia universities and comparing it with our more limited options in Maryland.  Aside from UM College Park, I don't know that there are really attractive options. And even College Park isn't ideal -- so large, and not really far enough away from home to constitute what I consider a real college experience.

Contrast that with Virginia options ... UVA, William and Mary, Virginia Tech, and JMU ... they all seem so much better.  And the difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition is so significant.  I could pay my kids' tuition in state without any issue at all.

Would you move just to get in-state tuition in Virginia?[/quote]

Are you even familiar with MD state colleges.  You have a wide range of choices:  Frostburg State, Morgan State, Salisbury State, St. Mary's, Towson, UMBC, UMES, Coppin State, Bowie State.

I think once you get past the VA flagships, which if you move to Fairfax will be hard as hell to get into, they are really all in there together.[/quote]
