<p>I am OOS so I can realistically expect to pay about 24k per year for tuition+dorm+food. But their fin aid is pretty generous cause I got 10k per year scholarship for 4 years and I only have to maintain a 3.25 GPA to keep it. So basically I will only have to pay about 14k/year to goto school which my parents can easily cover. Some schools like UT Austin offered 20k/year but require an impossible 3.5 GPA. UCSD gave a measly 2000/year for being a regent’s scholar. And UA has pretty decent tuition costs to start with so stop complaining cause it could be worse.</p>
<p>And I agree, 100k/year income is nothing with 2 kids going to OOS college 100% out of pocket while they are trying to save for retirement in 15 years.</p>
