[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UF is about $28k OOS, less than $50k / yr all-in including room and board. Gainesville has a regional airport, but Orlando is also less than 2 hours. Not a suitcase school. [/quote] UF is a top school and hard to get into OOS[/quote] It's also ranked in the top 30. Not the criteria OP is looking for.[/quote] Well, to be fair DC is not opposed to T30 school this is more me learning about what is out there apart from extremely selective schools. We're CA based. Yes, will be leaning into UC options as well - Berkeley is the dream but again, trying to avoid getting hearts set on one school. [/quote] I don’t understand why a CA kid would go to (say) Delaware over one of the lower-level UCs. They’d be better off at UCSB, UCSD, UCSC, UCI, or UCD. If you are looking for money and not too far from home, University of Portland gives fantastic merit aid to kids with good stats and seems to fit your criteria. A friend’s child went there almost entirely free, choosing that over Berkeley. She then went to HYPS for grad school. [/quote]
