Border States Pay In-state?

<p>Somebody here mentioned how they live in Wisconsin, but go to a school in Minnesota and pay in-state.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if that is the same for Illinois and Indiana and the surrounding states as well?</p>

<p>Can someone link me to this?</p>

<p>I've been trying to look this up on google, but I don't seem to have the right wording because I'm not getting anything in return.</p>

<p>Some states have deals, I'm not sure all the specifics. I know for a fact that this is not the case between Illinois and Indiana.</p>

<p>Quite often this varies college to college. For example, some colleges in Ohio near Michigan allow residents from certain counties to pay in-state (but at least in these cases it's not the whole state). I think the best place to check would be with the department, perhaps through the website, of any colleges that might be in question.</p>

<p>Try doing a search for 'in-State tuition Reciprocity Agreement' </p>

<p>I know some schools in Oklahoma has them with certain neighboring states - but I don't think it applies to the large flagship Us - maybe the smaller ones. You could also try entering the same phrase with your State and/or the university you are interested in.</p>

<p>I'm on the border of Ohio-Michigan and there is some reciprocity for a few schools...</p>

<p>google tuition reciprocy program.</p>

<p>I live in Missouri, and I know that Missouri and Kansas have a tuition recriprocacy program</p>

<p>It could be that some schools have a special tuition rate for states that touch each other (or a group of states) - and that it is usually for a major that schools in one state may not have so allows students to attend an OOS school nearby that does have it. New England schools have this agreement - and it is a tuition break for sure for the OOS student.</p>

<p>Another possibility may be related to financial aid - in some states/schools - certain scholarships given to a student would allow that student to be considered an in-state tuition student - even if they are from OOS - NC/SC have this.</p>

<p>Does that make sense??</p>

<p>I know that a tuition reciprocity program also exists in the New England States--but only if the students in-State school does not offer a particular program that another state school does.</p>

<p>This may help??</p>

<p>or just google 'tuition reciprocity' and a bunch of stuff comes up</p>

<p>Rhode Island College, which is in Providence, offers an intermediate tuition rate to MA towns within a certain # of miles from the border. They charge more than in-state, but not as much as out-of-state.</p>
