[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - don't overlook out of state options.

My son wouldn't have gotten into VT engineering, but he's at a highly regarded engineering school elsewhere with enough merit aid that we're close.  Certainly cheaper than UVA or WM

You just have to look around a bit.  DMV kids have a good reputation in the midwest.

He's thriving.[/quote]

One thing to keep in mind is that the in-state schools for Virginia residents are typically more expensive than the in-state schools for Maryland residents. So if you are saying that your out-of-state school came close to your in-state school tuition, that might be the case if you are in VA but maybe not if you are in MD.

Example, for tuition and room and board, UMD and UMBC are about $23,000 for in-state while UVA is closer to $30,000 in-state and William and Mary is about $37,000 in-state.

Yup, but the point still holds.  There is merit aid out there.  And this thread is about what to do when the flagship won't take you.
