*rry, but colleges are a business and will spend their money on their priorities. Expansion plans, research, the best recruitment efforts teachers,etc. There should be better investments made in helping keep tuition cost down. *

So since you are speaking of private schools I agree, It is a business.
Whether you are looking at a private university, where students are paying a larger portion of their education than a public university which is underwritten by state residents- if there was not demand for the product/services, they would go * out* of business.

But as long as folks are lining up to pay full price for a school, whether or not they can “afford” it, why should costs be reduced?
It’s not like the same thing can’t be found anywhere else!

If you don’t want to pay the going rate for a Tesla roadster, buy a Kia- it is your choice.
But if your “special needs” can only be met with a Tesla, :rolleyes:, then don’t complain because the guy in the Kia got there in the same time.
