What state schools are $60k+ for 2 years for in-state residents?
Berkeley was my guess for an expensive in-state tuition rate and they're $38k for 2 years.
Unless you're including housing/food/etc.
- clairity 6y agoyes, total cost, as that's the truer measure.
- thelean12 6y agoCertainly not an option for everyone, but a ton of people in my state school class still lived at home. A good percentage could have lived at home but chose not to. It's also hard for me to include housing because you'd need housing no matter what path in life you choose.
- clairity 6y agothat's true, but that ignores opportunities/opportunity costs, which would cover housing/food in an alternate scenario.
- colinmhayes 6y agoUIUC is 25k a year just tuition and fees. Expensive college town room & board plus opportunity cost of education instead of working easily gets you to 30k a year.
- mrlala 6y agoHoly shit it's that expensive now?? Graduated from there about 15 years ago and it was maybe 8-10k a year..
- colinmhayes 6y agoThe state cut all funding under the last governor so they had some major issues.
- arkis22 6y agoBe careful. Rauner cut 400 million for education during a year he could make a budget with legislators. Pat Quinn cut education spending by 340 million during a year when he got to write the budget himself because the legislature couldn't pass one.
- colinmhayes 6y agoThe legislature passed a budget every year under Rauner, he refused to sign it because he wanted anti-union runners. Agreed it's been a long time coming though, definitely not just Rauner's fault.

- colinmhayes 6y agoPlus 3700 in fees
- areyousure 6y agoMy apologies for not quoting it originally, but it literally says "Tuition & Fees".
- colinmhayes 6y agoExcept it also lists $3700 of other fees.
