  the trends at play here: - ability to prove worth outside an education credential - access to educational materials outside a couple elite schools - ability to find the relevent people to network with suggests that a software engineer today has it easier, not harder to overcome non elite credential than the people measured in the qouted study ------------------------------------------------------- that said, the MIT average numbers qouted above seem fine, if someone where to tell me they could attend MIT for less than 50K for the whole 4 years, I would say that sounds like a pretty good deal its encouraging to me that the top couple universities seem compelled to compete on value, even if that happens in what appears to me to be a fairly price discriminatory manner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_discrimination http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_discrimination ) hopefully the trend spreads and many many more college compete on value as well
