[quote=Anonymous]Re why describe school as OOS if you don't mean public OOS (where there's generally a price differential based on residency)? For some families (not necessarily OP's), the question is what would it take to induce you to spend more than in-state tuition for public school in your home state and to send your kid to go to college farther from home? My parents were like that -- I grew up in California and the standard from my parents' POV was "is the school really worth $X more per year than Berkeley?" (Aka "beat Berkeley."). That was a high bar and only a few schools cleared it -- and those were private schools. Abstractly, I still think that's a reasonable approach. In practice, though, we live in DC, so "beat UDC" was a meaningless standard.[/quote]
