<p>U. Texas
Tuition: state resident $7630 full-time; nonresident $20,364 full-time. Full-time tuition and fees vary according to course load and program. Part-time tuition and fees vary according to course load and program
Room and board: $8176. Room and board charges vary according to board plan, housing facility, and location
Plus about $3000 in fees.</p>
<p>"Univ of Washington has just announced a policy that anyone who qualifies for a pell grant pays no tuition."</p>
<p>But they've set it up so that a) virtually no students who qualify for Pell Grants, other than community college transfer, will get in, and b) the tuition portion of the $17,568 of costs is only $5,900, meaning virtually no one on Pell Grants will be able to afford to go, even as the University recruits more OOS full-pay transfer students while shutting out those from community colleges.</p>
<p>post #15 by bluebayou must be adding more than tuition, room and board for UCB.</p>
<p>Tuition is approximately $6700 (assuming you waiver the health insurance plan).
R&B can be as high as $13K for a dorm, but if you have more than 2 people in a room it can be less.
That said $13K + $6.7K is just under 20K, not the 24+ K indicated by bluebayou</p>
<p>Currently there are about 5000 students receiving Pell grants at UW. All will now be tuition free. May not be the who story, but it can't hurt.</p>
<p>No, I think it's great. Most of them are day commuters at the Bothell and Tacoma campuses, or evening students.</p>
<p>UMass Amherst is $16,800. Only about $2000 is tuition; the rest is fees, room & board. That's how the state can keep increasing costs without "raising tuition".</p>
<p>Back when my S#1 attended the University of Rochester (many moons ago), the total cost of attendance was a little over $20K, an outrageous amount, I thought at the time. But now it cost almost that much to attend the state flagship.</p>
<p>NC State University is about $13,000 including tuition, fees, room and board and books.
In state tutiton is $2,391.50 per semester.</p>
<p>Florida has free tuition for students with a 3.5 gpa, 1270 SATs and 75 hours community service. Too bad my daughter is going out of state!</p>
<p>University of Maryland at College Park: $20,350 according to the Web site. This is consistent with what it actually costs for my son to go there.</p>

<p>UNC- Chapel Hill
In-state: $3456 tuition + 1578 fees + 4600 Room + 2866 Board= $12,500
OOS: $18104 + 1568 fees + 4600 Room + 2866 Board= $27,138</p>
<p>Additional monies for books, travel and expenses</p>
<p>Grad school tuition $4113 in-state, $18,111 OOS + 1567 fees</p>
<p>Packmom listed NC State, there is also ECU, UNC Wilmington, Greensboro, Western, UNC Asheville, UNC Charlotte + several others, I think 16 campuses in all. UNC Chapel Hill is the MOST expensive of all the campuses.</p>
<p>This was one of the reasons we moved 2800+ miles (Bay area) 3 years ago, with 5 teen-agers all college-bound. DD#1 benefitted greatly, NC State grad (hard-to-find major) +grad school now.</p>
<p>This DD resided in one of the uni's research units so her room/board were provided at no-cost in exchange for 10 hours per week working in the research facility. Add to that a departmental scholie and she graduated debt free and $0 out-of-pocket for us! Grad students can also reside in one of the many units for all 4 years of vet school.</p>
<p>Other kiddos are including the state's med schools in their plans as well. All 4 years of med school (in-state) in less than DS#2's undergrad tuition for this year.</p>

<p>Just to clarify: University of Washington covers tuition and fees if you are a Pell grant recipient, AND if you're a Washington state resident. Transfer students included.</p>
<p>University of Kansas - Lawrence, sounds like a bargain. @$12,000/year
Includes tuition, room and board, books, fees, and little extras. </p>
<p>Older D lives in a scholarship hall which we think are the best kept secret around. Beautiful "house" with 50 girls. The girls do have "jobs" in the house that can take 4-6 hours a week - vacuum the halls, cook one meal a week, clean the dining room, etc. In total, the scholarship hall system has 11 homes, some 80 years old and one build just last year. They house 550 students (250 male, 300 female), have their own social system, governing system (at large and each hall), etc. and are CHEAPER than the dormitories.
Go figure!</p>
<p>"Just to clarify: University of Washington covers tuition and fees if you are a Pell grant recipient, AND if you're a Washington state resident. Transfer students included."</p>
<p>Just be aware that there are more than one UWashington. Most of the Pell Grantees are NOT at the main campus, but at two little satellite campuses (in Bothell and Tacoma) where many of the majors don't even exist. Not that it matters all that much, as most Pell Grantees can't afford the Seattle campus even with tuition waived (and there aren't that many of them).</p>
<p>Don't like your state university's policies much, do you, mini?</p>
<p>$19,000 (tuition, room and board and fees- lots of fees) at Umass Amherst for a junior if they do not have their own medical insurance . Otherwise with an insurance waiver we are paying $17,069. To be realistic though I have told anyone that asks that you need to add another $1500.00 give or take per year for spending money and other expenses. It drives me crazy when articles list tuition at most state schools at $10,000 or less or the average LAC is $25,000 not the ones we looked at- HA!</p>
<p>U of Wisconsin- Madison Under $13,000 instate tuition, fees, room and board.</p>
<p>I just wrote out a full time check for the semester for $3365.12 for tuition and fees, double that for about $6730. Plus dorm regular double $5136, add $500 for a single; the newest, most expensive dorm runs $750 more than those. Food is extra- for the dorm places it's pay per item at dining halls, snack bars/pizza and sub delivery...could be another $1100 or more on average (depends on how much one eats...and how many $1.50 delivery charges one racks up). Try around $900 for books... The official undergrad cost also including travel and miscellaneous is $17,270 per last summer info; $31,270 OOS.</p>
<p>I recently cleaned out some old stuff and found a 1971 newspaper article listing instate UW tuition over the years- it was $48 in 1948 or so (my mother's era) and about $254 in 1971 (my era)- per semester I presume.</p>
<p>When I started at Ga Tech, here were my costs (per quarter):</p>
<p>Tuition: $333 (and that was Out-of-State!! In-state was $133)
Dorm (double): $80
Full dining: $140</p>
<p>Total per quarter: $553</p>
<p>In-state total would have been $353.00.</p>
<p>Engineering books were very expensive. I paid over $20 once!!!!!</p>
<p>Geeeeeezzz.... I'm glad I made good money in my co-op job with Martin-Marietta ($2.05 per hour).</p>
<p>-dig</p>
<p>wis75, that $254 may have been for the full year. When I started at UW Milwaukee in 1972 I am fairly certain my full year's tuition was less than my tuition my senior year at a private high school, and that was less than $500.</p>
