Tuition or total cost of attendance? Notice that the 17% for 3 years is equivalent to tuition, not full cost.
> double major: BS in Computer Information Science, BA in German
The way I think about this is that you got a free BA in German, some free theory/systems CS courses, and some free gen eds out of the deal.
- vollmond 9y agoTuition + books/fees. No student loan interest, housing, meals, etc, accounted for. And that's probably a good way to think about it. I also came out with fewer math courses -- the specific CIS track I took had a lot of electives, as did the German major, so I just married them together. A pure CIS track would have included a math minor instead. edit: Also, assuming the 2 years for the course in the article is roughly equal to the computer science education I got, I could see being willing to pay the same amount to get out 2 years earlier and start earning graduate salaries more quickly. I certainly don't use the gen eds or German knowledge in any money-making way that I have noticed.
