[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I hear you, but don’t sympathize with your argument. First, W&M has a net price calculator. Using it, it’s pretty easy to estimate your potential aid. Others schools have the same. Run a few calculators and compare school results before your kid applies. Second, as a state school, W&M is already discounted for VA residents, so “financial aid” is built-in to the sticker price. Third, W&M and UVA have ED because they need NOVA students to prioritize them, but just use them as safeties. Both schools are excellent, and given that they MUST (state law) accept two-third of their students from VA, it’s important that they can attract many of the state’s best students. If you don’t like that, the state should release these schools from the 2/3 mandate, and they can get their great students from OOS. [/quote]

But no other state U system is so dependent on ED. Why is it such a factor in VA and other big systems can run their college admissions without it? [/quote]
