El Blanco My school had a system sort of like that, but you had to have bad grades, too (don't ask me how that worked, I wasn't in the program)

punkgrrrlie10 I heard Harvard was instituting free tuition for kids whose parents make less than 40K a year...and a sliding scale on up.

Commies!

Perndog Come on. The dude in the linked article goes to a school with $31,000 a year tuition. You know how high above average that is? If you can't afford it, either find some more student loans or go to a cheaper school. Ridiculous.

Max, though prices are indeed rising, there are still plenty of good colleges that will take your daughters for less than half of what this freeloader pays.

glowbelly i go to cleveland state university. the tuition just increased $1000 a semester.

the only good thing about going to college right now (besides getting my edumacation) is the tax break that i got this year for paying for some of my tuition.

AChimp If you're a Native, you can go to university here for free.
May 7th, 2004 04:59 PM
El Blanco No, they are taxed subsidized. That is not free. Also, the only really good schools in Europe are so exclusive, you can't within a mile of them.

Big McLargehuge I go to the University of Arizona which is one of the cheapest public colleges in the nation, after paying for housing and food i pay about 20 grand a year. The real price is having to live in Tucson, Arizona.
May 7th, 2004 01:37 PM
theapportioner All expenses combined, I'll be looking at around ~50 grand/yr.

did you catch that last post boortz-y, did you get that, mouthpiece?

AChimp Yeah, there's fees for being an international student, so the tuition would nearly double. Those fees are mostly charged by the various levels of government, though. Still, C$7000 is better than US$15K. There have been a few Americans in my business classes who came here for that reason alone. "High demand" faculties charge more, of course, or prevent international students from entering (ie. pharmacy).

What most international students do to get around those restrictions is to live here for a year and take a few easy courses and maybe work on campus. After the year, they can apply to be a Canadian resident and they apparently don't get charged as much.

The education levels are the same because it's the same big international associations that are accrediting the degree programs.

My tuition has never been above $3500.
but do they charge the non-resident fees which fuck people over. Tuition at ucla was around 3300/quarter but out of staters and international students paid like 10 or something a quarter.

Ya, he fit right in down in the Village.

El Blanco about $3500 a year after expenses. And its was a good school.

But, ya the schools are getting really expensive. But, that pays for the grants for the research labs and all that other good stuff.
