[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IDK but we make close to 300k and aren’t sending our kids to private schools because we think the tuition is ridiculous![/quote]

You looked at the wrong privates. At that income (for the strong student) there are many privates that will discount well below the public school cost. Not the top 30 schools but solid colleges in the top 100. [/quote]

Please enlighten me.  Sone schools we briefly considered were Wakeforest, Emory,  Tulane, and Lafayette, Washington and Lee and Lafayette. From everything we could see, we would be full pay. [b]It’s not worth it when our in-state option is probably UVA and/or William and Mary.[/b][/quote]

Back to the original point, UVA and William and Mary may be relatively good values compared to full pay private, but if you look even at those public schools there is an extraordinary amount of bloat.   Large administrations to support things not closely related to quality of education and professors that teach less and less over time.  It is time for a restructuring in higher education.  [/quote]
