Kansas State 
U of Arizona 
College of Charleston 
U of Pitt

PP was referring to your original list that you gave as examples of schools that are better than Maryland in-state schools. Just as one measure of the quality of a school, here are the 6 year graduation rates of some of those schools you listed - all are worse than Maryland state schools and most are absolutely depressing. The reality is that if you have a high stats kid, they can get good merit aid at a decent OOS school and maybe bring it close to in-state (but they would get merit aid in-state also). For those kids with average stats, they aren't going to get any merit except at maybe some of these schools you listed:

SCHOOL - 6 Year Graduation Rate
--------------------------------------
U of Alabama  -  66%
Arizona State – 66%
Miss State – 60%
U of Arizona – 60%
Ball State – 60%
U of Kansas – 60%
Ole Miss  - 60%
U of Missouri - St Louis – 59%
Kansas State – 59%
WVU – 57%
U of Hawaii - Monoa – 56%
Bowling Green State – 55%
Kent State – 55% 
Louisiana Tech – 54%
Utah State – 53%
U of Alabama - Huntsville (many kids go for 100% free) 49% 
Montana State -50%
U of NM – 46%
Coastal Carolina – 45%
Jackson State – 43%
Alabama State – 26%
Northeastern Illinois – 22%

This Poster is correct. Now who's the moron? And by the way, you spell it "you're" which is an abbreviation of "you are" not "your" which is possessive. But maybe you went to one of the colleges you listed, for a really "good" education and that would make sense...[/quote]
