[quote=Anonymous]I hadn't heard about the Texas model. I'm going to look into that to see if it means it keeps highly qualified candidates in the state after graduation. West Virginia has a similar program, or programs, really. In-state residents with qualifying ACT scores qualify for the Promise Scholarship, then there's also a WV Invest program and a higher education grant. Their goal has always been to educate the citizens and then retain them as WV citizens after graduation to better the state. Except that happens less than 5% of the time. What happens is that they give free tuition to all these highly qualified candidates and then after graduation (and even after Masters and PhD programs), they leave the state for better jobs elsewhere. The difference is that TX has more universities than WV and is an overall more prosperous state than WV. [/quote]
