[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The terminology really doesn't matter. OP clearly meant flagship to be the most selective state school in the state. The fact that Michigan is 50% OOS and Georgia Tech only 10% is most pertinent, and suggests that being OOS at GT could be socially isolating. [/quote] I fail to see what difference it would make if a student was in-state or OOS. No one ostracizes someone simply because they're from another state. This is a bizarre way of thinking. My DC attends an OOS school in which most kids come from that state. No one cares![/quote] It absolutely matters. Friend groups from high school move to college together at schools that are 80%+ in state. It is hard to break into that kind of a social scene, get accepted into Greek life, etc. They all already know one another! [/quote] Just ask any oos kid at Texas how hard it is to join a fraternity. [/quote] How hard?[/quote]
