Sometimes distance isn't even a factor in that. The University of South Carolina offers several scholarships that include getting in-state tuition as part of the deal.

Full disclosure, USC (yeah, I said it--we were a college before California was a state!) is a proud supporter and host of FRC4901. It's great to be a Gamecock.

And a pretty good football team, we found out last week.
