[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP what is the purpose of this thread?  Why do you want to compare a MD program to a VA program?  Families cannot choose to apply to both. [/quote]

Families certainly can choose to apply to both. TJ is open to applications from anywhere in the world, and people will often move from other states to be closer if their child is admitted.[/quote]

No.

I quote from TJHSST's webpage:

All applicants to TJHSST must, at the time of application, live with a parent or legal guardian who resides full time in, and meets the residency requirements of, a school division that participates in TJHSST. (FCPS Regulation 3355.13)

The applicant and the parent/legal guardian must actually reside (be present) in the participating school division at the time of application. If you own property here, but do not actually live here, you are not eligible to apply to TJHSST unless and until you actually reside here.

The school divisions currently participating in TJHSST are:

Arlington County
Fairfax County (includes City of Fairfax)
Falls Church City
Loudoun County
Prince William County
Fauquier County Public Schools and the cities of Alexandria, Manassas, and Manassas Park do not currently participate in TJHSST. Students who live in those school divisions are not eligible to apply to, or attend, TJHSST. If you live in one of these school divisions and you have questions regarding their non-participation in TJHSST, please contact that school division directly for additional information.

It is a violation of Virginia law (Va. Code § 22.1-264.1) to make false statements concerning the residency of a child for purposes of enrollment in a school outside of the attendance zone in which the student resides.
