Lets talk about shit

look at these kids

pichubro probably has no idea what her college actually costs

~$19,000

[pichubro]

Plus my tuition doesn't increase each year. Whatever tuition you start at freshman year, you get a four-year no-increased tuition guarantee. Stops after the 8th semester though.

so I was off a couple thousand.

[Kirby]

interestingly I have the bill right here (my mom photocopied it so I can see my schedule)

the final bill is basically 13 thousand, but considering that about 2 thousand of that is loans, the real cost is 15 thousand

[pichubro]

I get $7,000 off in scholarships so my final bills is around $13,000.

Hey kirby, it costs the same for us to go to school!

[Kirby]

yeah I was noticing that to

I think that the only reason private college looks so expensive at first is the registration fees, which amount to like 9 thousand dollars, in a public college that is just paid by the tax payer. The only difference here, is if you aren't a rich fuck, the government basically pays the registration fees (with tax payer dollars just like a public college).

Is that per semester and is that with room and board?

[Dogar The Brave]

look at these kids

I agree.

[Kirby]

yeah

looking at it though, Im not sure if these "loans" are real loans, they just look like stupidly worded scholarships, I think the entire 13 thousand my mom loaned off

[Dogar The Brave]

So it is 26,000 a year. There are cheaper tricks in town.

[God]

I agree.

really, an attachment?

and God I can't post pics

Naw Scranton didn't want to give me any scholarship at all, Pen State never answered back. ESU wasn't to bad, but I would of had to commute or else it would of been the same price anyway (they didn't give a scholarship).

The only toss up I had was between York and Wilkes. York seemed to big and pretentious for me, and wilks was like 1 thousand bucks cheaper, but it was trashier honestly. Looking back though, I might of chosen wilks because all my fucking friends ended up going there. Unfortunately, they entered in like June like the drifters they are, unlike me who accepted as soon as I could in the spring.

[Dogar The Brave]

There ARE cheaper places in PA though.

[Kirby]

5 applications was enough

The price of university in the US disturbs me

[pichubro]

Seriously, when my dad went to school his tuition was $600. He left school with a $1,600 debt after four years.

But that was before it was a business to run a university. -_-

[Rayne]

my uni is around 25,000 a semester with everything included

[TeenageAngst]

$10,000 for in-state tuition a year, at roughly 14 credit hours a semester.
$8,000 a year for campus housing. I'll likely be switching to a local apartment complex next year once I have a job in the area and know some room mates.
$800 I'm going to wager for books, subscriptions to the damnable online applications, parking pass, etc.

-$6,000 for federal grants since I'm poor as dirt.
I'm still looking at a goat-choking sum of $12,800. Most of that will be in loan form :/

[Hicky]

£27,000 for three years of fees, which you get in "loan" form and is taxed off your income in later life. £3000 maintenance grant a year. A few more thousand in what your maintenance grant doesn't cover. Then accommodation, which is about £3000 a year. I thought that was bad...

[Hicky]

TA's costs are pretty identical to mine

[TeenageAngst]

Once I get private housing my costs, as far as American universities are concerned, will be remarkably reasonable. I also want to get some scholarships next semester/term so I don't need as many loans. I kinda procrastinated too much on that.
