Colleges your child crossed off the list after visiting, schools that moved up on the list. Why?

Yes, we substituted ‘free’ with ‘included’, as in ‘included in fees.’ Student activities? Included. Public transportation, athletic events, photocopies, athletic activities (at the rec center)? All included but not free. Sometimes these items were itemized (which wasn’t always a good thing as then they weren’t included for tax credits, like insurance and transportation) but there is very little at school that is free.
