<p>*And the COA of my state flagship is already more than double that of mom2collegekid’s flagship, *</p>
<p>I don’t think so. The COA for our flagship is about $20-23k per year. The COA for your flagship is about $30-33k per year. This is for the past year. Even if costs go up for 2011-2012, they won’t be “double” nor would they be “more than double.”</p>
<p>That said, a state like Calif is blessed with many good choices…and the Cal Polys and the top 3 CSUs provide an excellent education at less than $20k per year.</p>
