[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is welcome to their opinion, of course. But then, there is also reality. Since engineering was mentioned, see the programs available at VCU, ODU, and VMI. And there are some targeted engineering programs at some of Virginia’s HBCUs, Norfolk State University and Virginia State University. And at small privates like Randolph-Macon.[/quote]

OP here.

Y’[i]all may disagree all you want but I have seen more and more Virginia kids heading to the OOS public schools like UMCP, Pitt, UDel, etc.

Am I the only one seeing this trend?  Have you all not seen the threads comparing JMU and OOS public such as “JMU vs Pitt”?[/quote]

A[b]ctually, you haven't' because OOS has become obscenely expensive. [/quote][/b]

[b]+1.  UCLA is now 76K OOS.  UVA is 37K.  Families don't go OOS unless they have to. you are trolling[/quote]

F[b]amilies don't go OOS unless they can.

Fixed that for you.

At 78K a year?  no way.  DCs didn't appl anywhere OOS.  All in-state.  Thank heavens.[/quote]

I don't think you are aware that Berkeley is now $78,732 a year for OOS.  Berkeley doesn't even break it down anymore - they simply state there is a surcharge of $32,574 for OOS on top of the in-=state of $46,168. https://financialaid.berkeley.edu/how-aid-works/student-budgets-cost-of-attendance/.  For that reason we didn't apply anywhere OOS.  I actually don't know anyone who applied OOS.  Everyone finds a home in the 30 odd public schools in Virginia.  UVA is $37K.  Our DDD went to GMU.  It was slightly more.[/quote]
