Or they could go to a reasonably priced college for $40k or less and get just as good of a job. $120k is a jokingly high amount of tuition.

- lumost 5y agoReasonable priced such as an in-state university? https://www.umass.edu/financialaid/undergraduate/undergraduate-costs https://www.umass.edu/financialaid/undergraduate/undergradua... In-state: 30,656 * 4 = 122k Out Of State: 51,181 * 4 = 205k

- seattle_spring 5y agoYou picked a total outlier, a very prestigious public school in one of the most expensive states. University of Utah, for example, is a relatively good school and costs about $8k / year for in state tuition.
- lumost 5y agoUniversity of Utah costs 23k per year in-state with a total cost of 27k per year including indirect costs. Out of state is 43k/yr excluding indirect costs. If you looked at this 5-10 years ago your numbers were probably right. But interest rates are low and borrowers can borrow far too much money.
- seattle_spring 5y agoTuition is $9k per semester full time [1]. You're looking at costs that include housing, which someone needs regardless of their status as a student.
