[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Northeastern in Boston, NYU, and UChicago have gone way up US News list. All three are known to be pretty shameless in their marketing and tactics.

Is UChicago worth 80000$/yr? Hell no. It's a miserable school for [b]PhD gunners. [/b]Save the money for their wedding or an apartment after college.[/quote]

What the heck is a ‘PhD gunner’ exactly?

Saving money for a wedding or apartment? Why not just flush it down the toilet now?[/quote]

[b]To our family money is for education. It’s not for a wedding or an apartment - education is the most important thing. I will be getting an additional part time job for my kids’ education if need be. [/quote][/b]

You do know Chicago is almost $80K a year?  You have to go make $140 to make that nut after taxes in your additional part-time job.  Education is important but not these obscene prices at the undergraduate level. I have two in UVA at $26K a year and one is looking to law school now at almost $100K a year in three years' time.  Try juggling that with taking care of elderly parents, trying to put away some cash for retirement, and tuition for SN schools.  You will be thrilled when your kid gets accepted in-state.[/quote]
