[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My thread title may not be clear. We are DC residents so both are OOS.[/quote]

I thought DC residents get instate tuition for college.
Is there income limit?[/quote]

DC residents have access to tuition assistance grants of $10K/year to state universities. It’s a federally funded program called DC TAG, and it’s not means-tested. When the program was established (20 years ago?), $10K/year made up the difference between IS and OOS tuition at many state schools, but the grant amount has not increased with tuition rate changes.[/quote]

Is it enough, for example to cover IS - OOS tuition differential at schools such as VCU or UMBC?  JMU or George Mason?  University of Virginia at Wise?
How about Western Carolina University?[/quote]

I suspect you meant this as a gotcha, but the answer for all of these schools except WCU is no. And it’s not even close. For most, the gap between IS and OOS tuition is 20K. [/quote]
