August 15, 2011 at 6:37 PM in reply to: OT — Article: “10 Reasons to Skip Expensive Colleges” #719664Participant[quote=njtosd][quote=LAAFTERHOURS]My parents sent me to a private university in the state of NY and my tuition was roughly 19K a year (1994-1998). Room and board was reasonable because of location (senior year off campus house was 1200 for each semester Aug-Dec and Jan-May)
I would say that I got minimal value out of school. If anything, I learned street smarts over book smarts. Most of the tools I have today are from post collegiate studies. I cant wait to see what some of these schools cost when our daughter is nearing 18. I will be looking to relocate to a state with good state schools that are on the lower end of the tuition scale.[/quote]
Wait, don’t you live in California (judging from your screen name)? The state schools here are about the best for the price . . . UC tuition plus room and board this year was 29,000. Don’t know about CSU.[/quote]
Yes I live here and im going off of the cost of CA publics vs other states. There are better values out there with UNC being consistently number 1 or close to being the best value out there. I wont be moving to NC but just want to explain my point.
