<p>When transfering to a uni they show statstics: 90% in-state, 10% out of state(collegeboard.com). So does this means that its harder to get to that uni when you are out of state? Can please someone tell me how it works when applying to a uni, thank you</p>
<p>It depends on each state, but yes, state universities have a primary mission to serve their own citizens, so they recruit OOS students secondarily and give them less in the way of aid. In NC for example, Chapel Hill must be at least 83% in-state students by statute. But in SD, the public univs cost the same in-state or out. They’re eager to attract people to SD.</p>
