My kid is OOS and we’re really struggling with this as well…its come down to BU, Northeastern, and GT. And some days UNC-Chapel Hill. And Tufts. We’re a mess. LOL . I do think it will be Tech…its higher than our state option, of course, but with the aid, its running a bit cheaper than the others (and a lot cheaper than Tufts). But i agree that it is a very very hard decision.
And i think the question is a bigger one – that is, is School X-OOS worth the difference from School X-IS. it’s truly hard to know.
