[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]However bad you think the options are in Virginia, agree that there are many more tiers and affordable options relative to other states. [/quote]

[b]UF and UGA are as good as or better than comparable Virginia options, larger, and virtually free in state [/quote][/b]

But most reading this are OOS so your point is irrelevant.  UF is $46,000 OOS and UGA is $48,000 OOS.  GMU (where DC went) is $13,404 tuition and $27K all in when housing is added.  Add is the benefit of driving instead of flying and you can see why in-state Virginia is so popoular.[/quote]

OK, but why are we celebrating Virginia for having in state options that cost 40k a year when other states manage to offer comparable schools for far cheaper [/quote]

UVA tuition is between 15,000-27,000, depending on college/program

You're welcome to complain about VA schools, but don't make stuff up.[/quote] You forgot the Room +Board +fees part!  You can not just look up "tuition" at a school to think that is what it is going to cost you. Nope Add another $10-20K Even if your kid lives off campus(unless your kid is paying for that)[/quote]

Yup, it's about 43K a year for engineering tuition, fees, room/board at UVA and 46K oos for Georgia Tech engineering tuition, fees, room/board and its about 24K instate for GT.   GA offers Hope and Zell scholarships so many of the kids are going to school for only the cost of room and board. Same in Florida.[/quote]
