[quote=Anonymous]My student was accepted to VA Tech (did not apply to UVA) and a couple of OOS flagships. With merit, the OOS schools were about the same cost of attendance as VT - one slightly lower, one slightly higher, but all three are covered by what we have in DC's 529 so the difference isn't very significant to us. DC liked VT ok, but the decision came down to wanting to experience living in a different part of the country - different climate, different culture, new scenery, different options for outdoor activities. There's nothing wrong with Virginia, but DC has lived here for their entire life and just wanted to try something else. I was the same way. My own home state's flagship university was less than 15 miles from my parents' home. I did not want to go to college in my own backyard, so I only applied OOS.[/quote]
