[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just looked on their website, and all in, Tufts is $88,300 (including a mandatory 1K health and wellness fee -wtf is that?!?).

Someone please tell me how this is (or any school) is worth almost 90K. What are you exactly getting that you can’t get elsewhere for 1/2 or 1/3 the price?[/quote]

If people will pay it, then that's what it's worth. Education pricing in the US is driven by the market  [/quote]

I mean I get that, but I’m just curious as to what people who are willing to pay think they’re getting out of it, more so than a much cheaper school. [/quote]

Boston is expensive. A much cheaper school probably pays the faculty less because of a lower cost of living.[/quote]

+1000

Look at most Boston private schools, and check out how much kids pay for off campus apartments.  Many pay $1500-2K+, and the $1500 are often dumps, no laundry in apartment (so they pay $4.50 to wash and $4.50 to dry a load in the basement of the building---that's $9 to do a damn load of laundry).   Oh and it's Boston so you pay a 1month rent "finding fee" to get the aparement as well, plus the 1 month deposit (which we all know you never see again when it's in a college area).  [/quote]
