NDSU makes another list, but not necessarily a good one.

Bad news: NDSU has the most expensive tuition in North Dakota.
Good news: If you make a list of each state's college with the most expensive tuition, NDSU is #2 most affordable.

I'm sure the local talking heads will be sure to ask the logical question of "WHY".

Tuition and engineering fees alone in 2002 was just under $4000 per year... crazy how much tuition has gone up.

I thought that was way too high, until I saw it was out-of-state tuition...

Tuition/Room/Board for me at Jamestown College from 2002-2006 was around 11ish thousand a year (before scholarships)....it is now $26,730 per year at "The U". :rofl: I wouldn't be able to afford to go there now.....

So A college education is only $16,000.00?

Well it took me 5 years (4.5 of classes and one semester/summer on co-op) plus the first year had room and board. With some scholarships my loans were well under $20,000 upon graduation. Throw in the STEM loan repayment program and my education at NDSU was a pretty good deal.

I was a MN resident, so it looks like tuition and fees have gone up slightly more than double since my days.

Pfftt. That's nothing. I pay more in day care a year than the Minnesota resident rate. That is no bullshit either.

Thats one good reason to keep a strong relationship with the Grandparents. It makes a huge financial difference.

Just sayin'

Good schools are expensive. Ask Ivy League schools.

It costs more when you have students who are actually on campus.
You have to heat the classrooms

Man, I don't need any more college degrees, but can I get housing and a meal plan for $7k/year again?
