College tuition hike too much

[undertheradar]

With most local scholarships, my experience has been that they are smaller in order to spread the wealth around. That was the way it was in Westlake Village, CA this past June. Is this not the norm? That was how it was done when I graduated in the '80s on the east coast.

Our local paper had an article today about Virginia state colleges. They are accepting more non-residents because they pay 2 to 3 times more in tuition. William and Mary actually admitted more non-residents than residents this year. I'm so glad we did the Virginia Pre-paid Tuition Plan with our 3 children. My son is a freshman this year and it is a relief to not have to worry about tuition increases.

I wish we had .
