[quote=Anonymous]Yes, the solution should be not a gift of $100,000. The solution should be that if your child is accepted and elects to attend UVA and the cost for Virginians is $15,000, but the cost to non-Virginians is $35,000, DC would pay VA the $20,000 for four years. The child/parent would then be responsible for the $15,000 normal difference. DC could always place a cap on the total amount that it would pay in tuition difference, to avoid shenanigan manipulations from the universities. But, that cap should be for all DC residents, not a select few. Otherwise, this new proposed legislation defeats the purpose of its targeted audience. DC has a lot of good colleges in the town, unfortunately they are all private. My family HHI is too high for FA and too low to avoid substantial educational debt for DC. That's why we are looking to minimize the financial impact by moving to ugly VA. [/quote]
