Non big city schools aren’t a 4x multiple or even 2x. And most schools aren’t in New England.
And most schools don’t require dorming, especially for all 3/4 years. The average student loan debt for a graduating undergrad is 23k. If college costs were truly 100k that just wouldn’t be the case.
Edit: median
- Riseed 4y agoObviously I didn't go to most schools. But none I attended were in a big city, and none were in New England, so it's not just a "big city" or "New England" problem. Regardless, I have never personally seen an example of on-campus room and board being <= off-campus room and board. > The [median] student loan debt for a graduating undergrad is 23k. If college costs were truly 100k that just wouldn’t be the case. I fail to see how that necessarily follows because: - many students and families save for college, so there's a cash downpayment - many students work to cover part of college costs - many families work to cover part of college costs But this seems an unproductive rabbit trail from the issue of letting kids get their sleep.
