[quote=Anonymous]I’m one of the UVA boosters and I’m just gonna sum things up as fairly and honestly and inoffensively as I can. UVA is a highly selective school with an excellent reputation. Most students who get into UVA in state elect to attend. Among those who don’t, some go to top privates instead. Others go to other top publics and pay full tuition. Some go to other lower ranked OOS publics and privates because of merit aid. Few go to lower ranked OOS publics and pay full tuition. In state students who don’t or can’t get into UVA often have high enough stats to get into all but the very best OOS flagships. These students will often elect to attend one of them over in state options other than UVA. But an in state student who is accepted at UVA but not accepted at a top OOS public is not likely to attend another OOS public and pay full tuition just to get out of Virginia. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, just that it’s uncommon. [/quote]
