Recent History of Tuition

<p>We are weighing scholarship offers and school admissions. UChicago is daughter's top pick. Trying to make sure we see the whole picture and would like to know if anyone knows what the last five years has looked like in terms of tuition for undergrads at U of Chicago.
Thank you for your help.

<p>If you search online for “U Chicago tuition” and the year, you will typically find a link to the school’s press release from that year. It looks to me to have averaged around 4% increase every year; I believe tuition alone was around $33,000 for 2006-2007. For 2012-2013 it will be about $43,500. Crazy, I know…</p>
