Are state schools worth it for OOS applicants?

UMD is a fantastic state school with an excellent reputation and very low tuition comparatively to other states in state tuition. Many out of state students are applying to UMD for its comparatively low out of state tuition…

@runswimyoga, S16’s GPA would keep him from getting merit aid from UMD. He’s looking at tuition +room at Ole Miss (definite) or full tuition at Temple (depending on how his GPA is weighted).
