[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many people would rather go oos to a state school than go to a slac. That surprises me. [/quote] I think this is where economics comes into play with the cost of college tuition being out of control. So a lot of kids would rather go to an OOS state school where they are likely to get merit (or in the case of University of Florida where the tuition is comparable to in-state tuition for Virginia). [/quote] But the merit's just as good if not better at the slacs! I understand not wanting to pay 80k. But the cost of most state schools oos is at least 30k. Dc doest have amazing stats and we've gotten at least that from several well-regarded slacs that offer research, internships, alumni networks, and individual attention you won't see at a school with 20k undergrads. Im not against large schools for undergrad, but for the cost I don't see the point. [/quote]
