[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d be happy if UVA had less than 10% OOS/international admits. It’s a state school. It should be serving Virginia students to the greatest extent possible. [/quote]
Call your state rep. The ONLY way to change this is by funding the schools differently. We've gutted spending on higher education in this state and somehow, the politicians convinced us it's the colleges' fault. [/quote]

UVA receives only 6% of its budget from the Commonwealtg. It’s unique in tgat it us almost entirely self-sufficient. What do you mean we’ve “guyted higher education in this state”? Most parents I know would kill for the higher Ed resources Virginia has. The only comparable system is California’s three-tier system but that’s almost exclusively for Californians now. [/quote]

Over half of UVA's budget is the medical system and that is not funded by the state general funds and should not be since it operates like most hospitals on patient fees.  That distorts the picture.  UVA actually gets more from the state per in state student than most Virginia public colleges.[/quote]
