If it cheers you up at all, housing doesn’t have to be the $9000 they say. After the first year, live in an apartment. For the first year, at least one private certified house (Europa House) is much cheaper. I wish I had known about Europa House because I hate dorm food.

Also, most people don’t spend anywhere near that on books and supplies. And if you are frugal, ‘other expenses’ is much less.
