re: the whole out-of-state thing
I think every school my son seriously considered was out of state so we've kinda been down this road quite a bit.
wustin's phrase of "desirable applicants" is a pretty good one IMO. The first thing that was waived upon acceptance (during early admission phase) was out of state. Every single out of state school - public & private -- that accepted him (one deferred him) waived out-of-state tuition charges with the acceptance. I mean, that's THE first thing that happened with every single one. That's across 7 schools in 5 states.
