[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no other good or service where the amount you pay is determined by the company selling it to you deciding how much they think you can afford. [/quote] Because college is supposed to be a public good. [/quote] It is. There are plenty of good universities that do not cost 60 or 80K/year. [/quote] You don’t seem content to go to one of those.[/quote] One of my kids attended a $60K that only cost us 40K. Other is full pay at a 80K, but turned down $40K/year total at a T40 (80 K was a better fit and we have it saved). Had we needed the $$ they would have attended the excellent school with merit---both are great schools, just one was a better fit for my kid. but they would be happy at the other if it meant they had loans at the 80K. My kids searched for colleges for fit and were not obsessed with T25 schools (only one had stats to worry about that). [/quote]
