[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why it is hard for families making around $300k who live in the district. There is no in-state option and schools like UVa out of state are as much as private colleges. The TAG discount only puts a dent in the cost.

The most desirable state flagships have gotten even harder to get into and harder to afford.[/quote]

It’s why we moved 2 miles from NW into NoVA when our oldest was starting Kindergarten. They now attend a private HS in DC, but are VA residents with all the great in-state colleges.[/quote]

Seems like the smart thing to do.  VA has so many great public universities, probably the best state after California (with the UCs and Cal States).  If finances are an issue, your top student can get into many state schools with great merit as well. But it's choice you have to make.  Personally, I'd be moving to MD or VA by HS rather than DC just to establish residency for college purposes, unless finances are not an issue[/quote]
