[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For Wilson SHS in DC, our list looks comparable.

University of the District of Columbia
Montgomery College
Temple University
University of Vermont
George Mason University
University of Maryland, College Park
University of Michigan
Pennsylvania State University - All Campuses
Virginia State University
Virginia Commonwealth University
University of Pittsburgh
Delaware State University
North Carolina A&T State University
University of Wisconsin, Madison
The George Washington University
Morgan State University
University of Virginia
Howard University
Clark Atlanta University
University of Maryland, Eastern[/quote]

OP here - Thank you!  This is the sort of list I was looking for.  [b]Since DC residents receive in-state tuition in other states,[/b] it makes sense that Wilson students are applying to Madison, Michigan, and UVM.  I also noted the presence of HBCU's.  The list does look rather different than Einstein's.  Now, could somebody from Whitman, WJ, or Richard Montgomery please share???

By the way, I am not in any way looking down upon UMD-College Park.  Whoever did that is another poster.  I'm just curious if large numbers of students from other MCPS high schools are applying to other schools.  That's all!  [/quote]

DC residents receive a $10K grant (TAG) toward out-of-state tuition to any state school. I WISH we got in-state tuition. And yes, cost was the major driver of my DD's college choice. She was accepted to her first choice private SLAC, but didn't receive enough merit aid etc to make it work. So she's headed to SMCM. She's very excited, and I am very grateful that she is not blinded by name brand schools that will put her and me in debt for years. [/quote]
