[quote=Anonymous]OOS college tuition is very personal.

Personally I think it is a mistake to not explain college finances before applying to any college. Like Sophmore year HS. They absolutely should understand that process.

While we could easily afford any college and grad school etc..we told them you go anywhere but our flagship state school if it costs more than that, they pay. Or they could show us a power point of why the other college is worth the money.

When it came down to picking a school they all picked something that was financially responsible.  No power points needed LOL.

Bottom line is colleges are businesses now a days and it's important to get your monies worth.

One of mine went out of state to a school I considered way below his academics but the cost was actually less than our instate tuition. Studied Engineering and Computer Science sitting very pretty right now with a great job.

College is about getting out with the least amount of debt as possible. I don't care if someone does community college or a "crappy lower tier college" all students have the same goal. Get a job or go to graduate school ,,,,,

Taking out loans to go to Michigan or Penn State over a flagship state school near your home, dumb.....
