[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Emory. Fantastic experience and great location. However, the tuition for Emory has gone up from 40k a year when I went to school (which I felt was staggering at the time) in the early 2000's to over 60k/year for tuition alone- not counting room and board. I would not send my kids there and pay that level of tuition. I would send them to a cheaper undergrad and then splurge on Grad school there- way more worth it IMO.[/quote]

DD went that route. Decided to stick with UVA for undergrad and went to Emory for grad school. Had no debt after undergrad. I could not afford the grad school $$ so she had to take loans on top of $ she had earned and some from us (but not that much).[/quote]
Emory is no more expensive than any other private school. What if a family doesn't have the luxury of living in  a state with one of the top public school, should they forego a great education if they can afford it. Realistically only Virginia, California, Michigan, North Carolina, and ironically Georgia have public schools that are worth going to over Emory, if cheaper. [/quote]Emory Alum who loved my undergrad experience there, but still really feel you can get a quality education at an affordable public school outside of the states you listed. Then you can splurge for a private grad school. Even the schools in Florida are decent and affordable if you are a resident.[/quote]
