[quote=Anonymous]No college for CS is worth $300K. Period. My kid went in-state to UMD on full tuition merit scholarship. Majoring in CS. Did paid internships in the summer of all three years and got his first job at a FAANG company. Yes, God only knows how long the FAANG job will last in this current state of economy and job market...but at least he is not lagging behind those students who paid 300K for a CS degree in terms of getting a first job. BTW - we paid for all other costs for my son - food, apartment, clothes, international travel, socializing etc. And adding all of that cost around 72K- 75K over 4 years. He did not have a car, parking fees, insurance, gas payments in college. Also, he was 30 minutes away so we were not paying for his flight tickets etc. SO - Remember - there are still [b]significant costs [/b]involved for just living a normal life and meeting your basic+ necessities, if your kid is not living at home.
