I think you need to take into account the population of the state (using that as a surrogate for the number of people age 18-22) . Alabama's population is 5.1MM . The percentage of Alabamans going to U of Alabama may not be out of line with the percentage of Pennsylvanians going to Penn State, for example. As well, Alabama also has Auburn University and other state schools. 72 percent of the class of 2025 at UMass were in-state students.. At the University of Vermont for the class of 2026, in-state residents were 16 percent of the freshman class. Vermont is in a demographic free-fall, and very much depends on out of state students to keep the university functioning. UVM is similar to a selective private university. Tried to think of a peer school but came up short, it's a unique place. |

Fairfield gives a lot of merit money so many of their students do not pay the full sticker price. |
