Never having gone to school in the US, can someone explain to me the difference between state schools and "non state" schools?

It's defined on how it's funded. So State schools can't get state funding while private schools can not. It's also on how they file as either for profit or non-profit.

That is kina the short version of it :)
Oops..typo. State Schools can get state funding.

Also, for state schools--at least in California--state residents get the lower tuition, while students coming from out of state typically pay more. At least that's what I remember. I had some friends from out of state who moved to California six months prior to starting school so they could qualify for residency.
