[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC goes to college in 2026. How much does it cost for an OOS Top 50 school/yr ?( we will not qualify for aid)

I was budgeting $50K ( so $200K for 4 years) - but some schools have tuition alone at $50k ( eg UCLA is $46k) per year

So total cost seems to be close to $70k to $80k, which equates to $300k-$350k for 4 years.

Is that what others have experienced?[/quote]

I would plan for $60-80K a year for a private or OOS school.  We cannot afford that as that is as much as our house cost.  We saved for state school.[/quote]
+1  In high col places like CA, you can expect about $70k/yr.

Unless you are wealthy, it's not worth it.

San Diego State University is like 20K + room & board out of state. [/quote]SDSU is likely NOT what people are thinking about when they say OOS T50 school, because it's far from that (#151 this year). Yes, it's easy to not pay more than 25-30K if you go in the 100-200 range and have a decent student. [/quote]
