[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Wry common at state publics….good luck graduating in four years.[/quote] It's very easy to graduate in 4 if not 3 years from a state public if you came in with 4s and 5s Official AP scores (even 3s, depending on the university). But mediocre underachievers without a handful of strong AP scores, yes, parents ought to budget for a 5th year. And don't forget to account for opportunity cost of one year of lost wages. I think the average starting salary for a college grad is now $50K? So public university cost of attendance of $30K + $50K lost wages = over -$80K for that fifth year. Ouch.[/quote] An entire 5th year usually means you failed classes along the way. Beyond the top public’s, smaller regional public’s accept CLEP exams to the same extent that they accept APs, and CLEP exams can be taken throughout college. [/quote]
