[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s the costs too. Kids are pulled out of state if they don’t get into the big schools rather than go to those schools. Why are VA universities so expensive? [b]Are they not funded as much as other states fund theirs? [/b]I’ve seen wondered this for a while. Or is it that they just could price them so high because northern Virginian salaries could pay?

Yes.

[i][b]“Virginia funds higher education at a lower level than all but 12 other states[/b]. In terms of general fund appropriations per full-time equivalent student, the national average is $9,327 per student per year. The Virginia figure is $7,215. The only states lower, ranked in descending order: Delaware, Nevada, Indiana, West Virginia, Louisiana, Arizona, Rhode Island, Iowa, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Colorado and, in last place, New Hampshire at $4,370. The highest state is Wyoming, at $29,680, although that figure might be distorted by the state’s small population; the next highest state is Illinois at $18,752.[/i]
