My information got leaked by OnePlus last year and I got hit with some minor credit card fraud. At least I didn't get hit this time... One would think that companies would step up their security after a breach.

I agree it's high, but these are all state schools. You're picking the out-of-state tuition number that's not supposed to be subsidized by local taxes. It's far easier to raise tuition on out-of-state kids so that has ha

Did you mean shockingly inexpensive? UNC Chapel Hill (what I assume you mean by North Carolina) costs students from the state $8,834 USD. Out-of-state tuition is $33,916. I would not call either number "shockingly expensive." Mich
