[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Between 1987 and 2017, the cost of attending a public four-year college rose more than 200%.

For the 2024-2025 school year, Tufts’ estimates of expenses for undergraduate programs reaches nearly $96,000, trumping Wellesley — which comes in at about $92,000.

For the year strting this fall, Yale University comes in at almost $91,000, preceding Boston University with around $90,000 for the academic year.

Crazy. There have been some pretty big jumps in tuition since 1998-1999:

Amherst 24,090 / 69,820
Boston College 21,304 / 66,410
Boston University 23,148 / 66,670
Harvard 23,618 / 54,269
MIT 24,050 / 61,990
Northeastern 18,192 / 62,000
Tufts 23,709 / 66,358
Williams 23,860 / 68,240

UMass also saw a massive jump in tuition but even that ~260% increase in in-state tuition is a good deal in comparison…

UMass Boston in-state 4,171 / 14,905 
UMass Boston OOS 12,532/ 36,538
