[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents did not pay for my college or grad school. I never considered any public universities in state or out of state. I am from NY. I applied to schools I was interested in, got financial aid and graduated grad school with loans and paid it off pretty quickly. I worked in investment banking and private equity in NYC so it was fast.

I’m surprised at how many people choose state schools in VA and MD.

Are students that afraid of debt?

All these families are better off financially than my family was when I was going to college. The cost of college was not a factor for me. I just knew I would pay it back.[/quote]

You are tone-deaf and ignorant, OP. Most professions will never, ever, create investment banking type wealth. Most people don't want that job, because we're all different with different skills and personalities. So for the MAJORITY of jobs requiring a college degree or graduate school, there is no point in paying more for a private university. The ROI just isn't there.

Snap out of your bubble.[/quote]

Thank you. +1.[/quote]
