One of the most popular majors for out of staters at Georgia Tech is Nuclear Engineering because it's a common market major.
Also, because they've lost so many out of state students from GA in the past ten years since HOPE started, Jacksonville State charges in state tuition to Georgia students from a group of the border counties (none in metro Atlanta, though).

Thanks for the enlightening information. I have heard of the common market majors. It is fascinating what impact HOPE has had on Georgia's neighboring states as far as educational opportunites! Presbyterian College in SC also offers a scholarship to Georgia h.s. graduates who are eligible for HOPE in order to attract them to their school. Sorry to totally hijack this thread, but this is so interesting to me.
