[quote=Anonymous]DC Metro area has its own competition going on, and it involves state schools. Many kids in Fairfax County have UVA and W&M on their list and so compete against each other for the limited number of slots allocated for NoVA. Yes, there are no explicit quotas, but a state school needs to serve the entire state and so cannot accept all well-qualified applicants from Fairfax. Not sure about UMD/CP, but something similar may be going on on MontCo. Several of my acquaintances who live in MD reported their kids being accepted there with great joy and relief. It has become very selective, and it's not a 100% safety any longer, especially if one is a MontCo graduate.[/quote]
