The state schools already do this. It's called "out of state tuition". For example, UC Berkeley charges California residents $14k/yr tuition while everyone else pays $44k/yr. Not surprisingly, the number of out of state students admitted to the UC system is increasing every year. [0]

I am picturing the same thing but 14k vs, say, 500k.

The problem is at some point in the future the university only accepts the actually paying kind of students. This is already an issue for the UC system.
