[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My god— my niece paid $100k freshmen year to attend Boston College. It’s not very different from Georgetown or any of the SLACs. My child has been accepted to some very adjective universities (5-6%%) acceptance rate—but paying $70k more per year over the very good VA public university seems ludicrous. This is the point we have come to in higher education. A $400k undergrad degree?[/quote] BC does not cost 100k so they are including a lot of extra spending on food and social. Mine are at ivies and it has been 80-86k each year. Not counting the very minimum we give for extra food because our food budget and high school EC budget has gone way down. UVA Engineering is $55k esp once upperclass and mcIntyre is more like 60k, so 85k is not that much more to get a world class T10ranked university/ivy. Why anyone would do BC over William and Mary or uva is interesting but they must have their reasons. Some people saved up and run a tight budget to be able to do $85 and eventually $95k. To each their own. [/quote]
