[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in Michigan, but I didn't grow up here (from MD) and honestly it was never on my radar before moving here 15 years ago. Now I am thrilled to be in-state for UofM. DS is a very strong student and our school send about 20-30% of grads there per year. We will see what happens, but I hope it works out. In Michigan there is also a program where you can buy credit hours from the day the kid is born, which we have done, has allowed us to lock in a price. All in all, it's a great state for public education and I agree on not having competition from privates, there hardly are any and I would never pay for them in Michigan. [/quote]

Of course it’s the same in Michigan. UVA and UMD wouldn’t be on the radar for the vast majority of students. I will say though that even if I moved out of the Midwest and to the DMV, UVA and UMD would still take a back seat in preference to my current state flagship.  I wonder if you moved back to MD, you’d still feel the same way? [/quote]
