[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To OP - no one has said this yet so I'm tossing in a thought. You don't know at this point in middle school if your kids will have the stats and ECs for admission to UVA or W&M. Both have gotten very difficult to get into. Virginia has over 30 institutions of higher learning (including the community colleges for the guaranteed transfer programs). You may find your kids fit better into GMU, JMU, etc., five years from now - DC amd MD don't offer the wealth of opportunities that VA does. And the DC tag program offers only $10k off the price and that's not going to increase even as costs rise. Finally, VA kids get preference for grad school prograns. My VA kid is applying to VA public law schools right now.[/quote] She probably has a good idea based on how well they're doing currently. Also the family has the means to support any gaps that need filling. I mean in terms of coaching / tutoring if required. [/quote]
