<p>Penn State, Tuition for Freshmen & Sophomores('07-'08): In-state-$12,284, OOS-$23,152</p>
<p>University of Pittsburgh, Tuition('07-'08): IS-$12,106 OOS-$21,616</p>
<p>Pennsylvania State University is not actually a state university. Neither are Univ of Pittsburg or Temple. They get a percentage of money from the state but I believe it is not more than 10%.</p>
<p>Heres a site for state colleges

<p>Re: New York State,</p>
<p>HudsonValley51, I got this info on SUNY Purchase:</p>
<p>Tuition and fees:
$5,709 in-state, $11,969 out-of-state
Room/board:
$9,028</p>
<p>(I wanted to mention room and board, for comparing with other states)</p>
<p>Momonthehill posted the PSU tuition. I also paid another 10,500 for room and board for my kid at University Park this year, bringing the in-state cost to about $23K (rounded up). There are some room rates that would have shaved a little off this. Thanks to generous grants, my kid at SUNY Buffalo is paying just about 1/2 that cost as an OSS student.</p>
<p>In Illinois, you are guaranteed the undergraduate tuition for 4 years. A few years ago, there was not that large of a difference between the two must expensive public schools: UIUC and UIC. That difference has grown significantly more since the guaranteed tuition started. It is a sad day when Urbana charges more than Chicago for housing.</p>
<p>University of Michigan instate COA (I think these are 07-08 figures):
Freshman and sophomore: $22,067
Junior and Senior: $23,395</p>
<p>Neonzeus: I guess one thing that you can say about Penn State's high in-state tuition figure is that it makes many other state universities' OOS tuition (with a few exceptions--U.Mich & UVM come to mind) look less daunting by comparison. ;)</p>

<p>Temple University - in-state is 10,800 + 8500 for Room and board = $19,300</p>
<p>They are considered "State-Related" - The "State-Owned" universities in Pa are a conglomerate of 14 State Universities such as Kutztown, Bloomsburg, MIllersville, Slippery Rock etc. They mainly focus on teacher education programs.
The instate tuition for those schools is in the $6600 range for the year.
For my daughter who wanted to major in engineering the only "in-state" universities available were Penn State, Pitt or Temple.</p>
<p>You folks who live in the south and west should count your blessings. PA complains about the "brain drain" but my kid can attend a large flagship university OOS and pay less than Penn State or Pitt or Temple.</p>
<p>paying3tuitions -- SUNY room & board rates range from $7,760 at New Paltz to $11,320 at ESF- Syracuse. ESF is the most expensive SUNY for OOS students, followed by -- surprisingly -- Farmingdale.</p>
<p>University of Maine total cost of attendance: in-state $19,014, OOS $31,224, NEBHE $22,284. About $10K of this is room and board, travel, and other expenses, the same for everyone.</p>
<p>NEBHE is the program we were talking about earlier, in which students from other NE states can gain preferential admission to selected programs. Their tuition rate is 150% of the in-state rate. Apparently all of the New England state schools designate such programs. I have the impression that if you apply to a program not on the list, that you pay OOS tuition, but I'm not sure of that.</p>
<p>NC State University-annual instate tuition/fees-$4438<br>
oos tuition-$16,636
room and board-$6620</p>
<p>East Carolina University-annual instate tuition/fees-$4218
oos tution/fees-$14,732
room and board $7600</p>
<p>University of Washington is estimating total in-state costs for a student in residence at $19,381 for 2008-2009. (This includes personal, books, and minimal travel.)</p>
<p>While most PA state schools (Millersville, West Chester, Kutztown, etc) were all founded as teachers colleges, I believe that Business is the most popular major at most of them now. I thought that the tuition was the same at all and room and board was different but after a quickie search I found that tuition AND room and board varies at each school. Still a deal for oos students, especially NJ residents who have a lack of well priced publics.</p>
