[quote=Anonymous]In the late 90s (slightly more than 20 years ago), UNC annual tuition for residents was under $1500. ANNUAL. You could pay tuition with your summer job or working part time during the year. In the mid-90s, in-state tuition at UVA was between $3000 and $4000. George Mason charged a fraction of that. Yes, these are state schools and this was forever ago, but when I attended college in the 90s, Wake Forest was around $12,000 per year. Tuition alone is now $55,000. This increase has far outpaced inflation or salary growth during the same time frame. There is no way a middle class family can save this much for college. I don't want my kids to carry student loan debt into their 40s like some of my colleagues, so the options are not great for doughnut hole families. [/quote]
