@socaldad2002 Galloway favors the expansion of online higher education over traditional (and increasingly expensive) learning so I would take his predictions with a grain of salt. While I could see regional LACs with small endowments as being vulnerable, UTD and UA-Huntsville are not schools I’d see as imperiled. Based on what I see on CC and among fellow parents, they have been increasing in popularity because they are perceived as offering good value for the money and being located in areas with robust internship and job possibilities.
I hope @kindamediocre (who is not!) comes back with some budget info so we can help her to find affordable options.
