<p>I read that article, and I think someone needs to let him know that $18,000 for 4 years of tuition and fees is a bit off, if he’s counting 15 credit hours a semester (as the schools tell you to take). </p>
<p>If you start this Fall, and rates stayed the same, tuition + fees for 15 credit hours is $2912.60. Multiply by 8 semesters and I got $23,300.80 for tuition and fees.</p>
<p>It’s great to be ranked as a college best buy. I just think the numbers should be clarified a bit. Reading the numbers, I’m now left with a lot of questions- Did they count just 12 credit hours per semester, instead of 15? What year range did they count for the 4 years?</p>
