<p>It’s not a matter of affordability. My parents have agreed to pay for half of an in-state education (basically what it costs at Madison for tuition+books+room/board+university meal plan). Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Madison is probably going to be about $20K this year (including books, room/board, and meal plan), so my parents will chip in $10K a year (no matter where I go). That means if I go to Minnesota I won’t be paying a cent out of my pocket.</p>
<p>Any other suggestions?</p>
