- Why many schools are increasing the number of out-of-state students admitted.
- Misconceptions that misguide families when considering where to apply to college.
- The financial implications and academic opportunities available for students at different institutions.
Key Takeaways:
- Private or out-of-state schools may have better financial aid opportunities than your in-state public universities.
