Do you know what the out-of-state tuition is for UMO, and the instate tuition for Rutgers? Just wondering the amount that is being saved. I'll read the article and find out. Thanks. Very smart on Maine's part.
In state: 11.5k
Out of state: 30k
NE/Canada: 15.5
Plus room and board.
If memory serves, bring a jacket.

screw RI...
Bunch of strippers and felons. And that's just the former mayors of Providence.
I'm not sure why - wasn't listed in the article I read.

Why not RI?
You'd have to ask the trustees of Maine's state university system.

Good News for NJ HS Grads, according to an article on NJ.com (http://www.nj.com/education/2015/12/new_england_college_trying_to_poach_nj_students.html), one out-of-state school is giving NJ students a 50% discount to attend:
The best part about this news, I think, is it might spark a tuition discount war to attract NJ students which makes a lot of sense since our students are among the brightest, if not the brightest, in the country (for example, NJ's PSAT 2016 cut off score for the National Merit Scholarship is higher than every other state this year, http://www.fairtest.org/sites/default/files/NationalMeritSemifinalist2016-scores.pdf). While I think Rutgers is the best bet for our students, it is becoming difficult to get into Rutgers unless you have a very good GPA and good test scores. In fact, it is already common to be admitted only to Rutgers Newark or Rutgers Camden if you don't have top stats. The Maine School is offering this deal to all NJ Students with just 3.0 GPA and SAT of 1050, stats that might not even get you into Rutgers any more, so this would be a very nice deal. Now, if the Big Ten Schools would just offer such a deal ....
