Virginia College University

Is it harder to get into an out of state college/university?

Im in the 10th grade and i really want to attend vcu(Virginia Commonwealth University) or Howard University in Washington DC.I would like to go to a university with pharmacy. I live in Atlanta,Ga and I have a 3.0 or 3.4(all B’s in mostly every class) gpa right now.Are those Universities hard to get into and do i need to make higher grades to attend either of those Colleges.And is it hard for an out of state kid to attend?

You’ll find mixed results. Some universities readily accept out-of-state students as part of their diversity. Others, like the University of California system, take the children of tax-paying Californians first. Such statistics are published; try the Princeton Review.
