[quote=Anonymous]Here, on a different page, NU cites the cost of attendance at $75,758. Having now sent two to college (without cars, no no fees there), I can tell you that those incidentals add up to far more than $3K-$4K (new computer that syncs with the school's system, books, supplies, fan, dorm stuff, linens, clothes, drinks and food off campus, train and airfare back and forth, online fees, frig rental or purchase, cost of participation in two study abroad programs, costs of suits and shoes for unpaid internship during the summer and transportation (hope that the internship is near where you live so DC can live at home). Then there's the kicker when you find out that DC can't graduate in four years - as is now our national norm - because they couldn't get the courses they needed first year so are behind or upon return from study abroad they can't get the classes they need to finish up. Lots of students are taking five and six years to complete.[/quote]
