[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tell my kids that they can go to an in-state public. They are welcome to apply to any private and out-of-state schools, but they cannot go there unless merit and aid are able to bring the price down to that of our in-state Publics. There are absolutely out of state schools and privates who will do this. But obviously, not all of them and it depends on the stats of your kids[/quote]

I am in VA. My daughter is applying to an out of state school that is cheaper than our most expensive state school (W&M) BEFORE merit.[/quote]

Can you share school?[/quote]

[b]Commonwealth University [/b]

Most of the smaller PA schools (ie, not Penn St or Pitt) are similarly priced[/quote]

But CU is ranked 126 in REGIONAL universities NORTH. That's not good[/quote]

Can we not attack PP or their kid’s choice? Not everyone wants or needs the same college experience.[/quote]

DP - It's not an attack. it's a fact. look it up. In such cases community college with guaranteed transfer program is less expensive and provides a degree from an outstanding institution. Remember we are responding to OP's problem. This could be the answer for them[/quote]

That's a lot of criticism for not knowing a lot about the situation. She wants a very niche major. Only 13 schools in the country have it and CU is one of them. That guaranteed transfer would not get her her desired area of study and that's a fact[/quote]
