Richmond or W&M?

Ultimately I decided to apply to Richmond over W+M because of cost (oddly enough I knew it would be cheaper to go to UR).

OK, dumb parent here. I realize this is not really my business, but saying your gpa is 3.5ish and you’re instate, how is UR, at 42K cheaper than WM at around 13K? Please, don’t get me wrong here. Both have absolutely wonderful programs and are beautiful campuses, and most likely it’s a little “sour grapes” as S. was wait listed at WM, accepted at UR (no aid at all), but is happy with the other choice he’s making.
