Around $55k last year. OOS at a state school. Next year will be closer to $65k.

About 12K per year with scholarship. Would have been around 63K without. Very expensive.

First semester? Not first year? So the whole year is $19+$19=$38 ?


Correct. In-state schools would be much cheaper- probably around $20-$25k per year.

DS is a freshman in HS and I'm just starting to look into colleges and associated majors, requirements, costs, etc. I'm having a bit of sticker shock, I have saved $40K so far and plan to save more but in my mind I was thinking that all the costs together would be around $20K per year for an in state school.

So, how much are you actually paying? Don't include FA or scholarships, just what you are out of pocket for the year.
