[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, $20k for four years is extremely do-able, even better if its FAFSA, and certainly worth going to HYPS over Arizona. Humanities education at top Ivies or SLACs cannot be beat by a large state university, because of how humanities classes are taught. Classes are discussion-based rather than simply a professor lecturing for an hour and going on with their day. This means having a small class size, intelligent peers, and a great professor (not saying state U's don't have good professors - they generally do) really helps the educational experience. For STEM classes, where the professor basically lectures for an hour while everyone else takes notes, having small class size is not as important. As others have said, HYPS humanities grads generally don't have an issue getting a decent job, even if its some administrative role in a corporation or government. $20k over 4 years is definitely do-able.[/quote]
