5% tuition increase for 2005/6

<p>Comments? Seems to be about average for what other institutions have announced.</p>

<p>Seems about average, unless you are in a state school. Some of them are going with double digits. Texas increased tuition twice last year, once each semester.</p>

<p>tuition is on par with all other private schools.
I was looking at the PR guide to the colleges today at my school library. Listed in it, tuition plus room and board at Univ. of Chicago cost around 30k total. I said "woah, this must be like, 10 years old"... alas, no, it was from 2003.
scary to think where this is going.</p>

<p>no way...unless your "around" means 37-39 k.</p>

<p>I think those guides are always a year or 2 off</p>

<p>the 2003 edition was most likely published in 2002 and I wouldnt be supprised if it had 2001 numbers.</p>

<p>I know USNews catolog doesnt have the right numbers for chicago.</p>

<p>well, yeah, and those numbers just reflected the cost of tuition + cost of room and board. IT doenst factor in the extra 3-5k for books, traevl and personal expense that colleges factor when calculating fin. aid.</p>
