What's this?

No (and not VT's call to make)


As a public institution, VT follows domicile/residency guidelines from the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia. VT does NOT make its own policy for this. Essentially, full-time residency in Virginia is required for 12 months prior to in-state tuition going into effect. This does not just mean getting a driver's license, part-time job, paying taxes or rent, etc. It really means a student's family (if they are dependents) would have to move their primary residence to Virginia.

In addition, Virginia Tech does not participate in Academic Common Market (neither do George Mason, JMU, UVA, or VCU) or provide tuition reciprocity for bordering counties/states, which some other regional schools do. This could help VT get more students from Appalachia (TN, KY, WV) that may not be able to afford VT's out-of-state tuition.

Out-of-state Athletes are not going to get in-state tuition during their time at VT (at least not as currently governed), and the issue is deeper than *just* "helping more student-athletes".

  In-state Tuition for Out-of-state Athletes? -- florida_hokie 10/18/2021 09:33AM
  VT in general does a very poor job of funding student athletes -- Happy Dog 10/20/2021 11:13AM
  That's not a student athlete funding issue, -- Pylons 10/20/2021 8:48PM
  I understand that, the point is there is far less of that available -- Happy Dog 10/21/2021 05:53AM
  Fwiw, that aid is likely far more need-based than academic merit -- Pylons 10/21/2021 08:48AM
  Yes and no -- Happy Dog 10/21/2021 09:16AM
  Did you or the friends apply for need-based aid? -- Pylons 10/21/2021 09:49AM
  If you are remotely middle class, you will not get need-based aid -- Happy Dog 10/21/2021 12:09PM
  I worked in financial aid (at VT). I know how it works. -- Pylons 10/21/2021 12:17PM
