Swear they just make up charges as they go along. You can't view your academic records after paying for all of the classes and bullshit fees to begin with, but wait we want more money. College is a giant scheme to rape you of your entire life savings.
 
it's funny because this is not supposed to represent education at any level. thanks to all of those people that are only business-oriented for turning it into just that (republicans)

it's bound to come up eventually when you're discussing the concept of college=business and student=customer, don't you think? it had to get that way somehow

 
I dont see any other way to look at it.

Not only does education benefit individuals, but if we could have a more educated society, America would be 10x better off
 
college costed 2,000 per year when my parents went to college. Wtf happened in 35 years that changed so now its up to 50,000?
 
that's like when my grandfather tells me he used to buy 2 cookies and a scoop of ice cream to make an ice cream sandwich at school for 4 cents. Inflation, technological advances, government influences, there are a million reasons prices rise over the years and it's only going to get worse...
 
But it goes both ways because Democrats enable this price hike with easy to get government loans. Government loans are a major reason for the high tuition.
 
To some extent that's bullshit. Canada offers tuition for under $5,000 because they pay more taxes. I don't see why we can't do the here in the U.S.
 
The ice cream example is mainly inflation though- also improved technology usually makes prices go down, look at how the price of microwaves/tvs plummeted over the years.

But yeah you're right how theres a ton of different reasons for tuition to skyrocket, fuck:

But it's lame how expensive it is. Makes CC seem do-able. SLCC has ex-uni professors that know their shit. I really do feel like You can get the same from a CC (minus your high-skill degrees like engineering and shit). Plus a ton of people go to CC for a semester and transfer in.
 
Pay more taxes or pay more for tuition. What's the difference? You're paying either way. At least when you pay more for tuition you get to choose where your money goes.
 
well its spread out over more people so you actually end up paying much much less in taxes then you would for tuition (thanks to all the old people for helping out!)
 
pretty fucking huge difference. what young adult pays as much in taxes as they do on tuition?
 
No, retard. They pay a small amount of extra taxes their entire lives to keep the tuition low. It's the equivalent of spreading out your tuition payments over the course of your entire life.
 
Exactly what im saying you fucking squid. Id much rather pay a small amount of tax to keep the tuition down than come out of school with $100,000 in student loan debt. Oh and nice pm, I love the irony.
 
I think turning to socialism, as mentioned above, is a bit extreme. Instead, public colleges could just be forced to charge a reasonable amount. It's just another way for the government to net more money, when, meanwhile, a more educated population would help better in the long run.
 
lol, its actually some good shit though,I have duel citizenship and I am able to tap into all these Canadian programs.... and I don't even live in Canada(or pay there taxes). But seeing as my mom paid in to them for soo many years.. and now isnt getting shit...
 
Oh shit, you caught me misusing a word! Call the grammar police!. So you want me to call you a hypocrite? OK! You are a hypocrite. There are you happy?

If anyone is a fucking idiot it's the person that thinks paying a minimal tax for a reduced tuition rate is equal to paying off a student loan that you can't declare bankruptcy on and that has an interest rate that increases over time.
 
if you instate(canadaian citazian) there around 5k or less.. if your out of state you looking at 35k and up
 
i'm a permanent resident and i get the domestic price. i looked at places like u calgary and u alberta, it was around 3k but who wants to go there? ubc is around 19k for me, and it's the only school worth going to in canada. that's why if i don't get in i'll be going to the us.
 
Still though, most mediocre schools, even for in state, START around 20k a year. Thats of course excluding community college. And I just don't get the allure of coming here. Sure we have a lot of good schools, but you'll be paying out the ass to attend. Im going to school in state and will have close to 80k to pay off after I graduate, and thats if I don't go to graduate school.
 
Im assuming you're talking about Montana State... Even if you're out of state its not that much compared to like every other school for out of state. Out of state with room and board and a meal plan is like $28,000 and in state tuition is like $5,000 (without room and board) and with it its like $12,000 so stfu and quit complaining
 
In the words of Dave Chapelle "I'm broke nigga, I'm broke!" You stfu, not everybody is a trust fund baby, some people work minimum wage jobs and barely get by.
 
What are you taking at ubc that would be 19k a semester? Most of my friends pay about $500 a course which works out to $2500. Even with fees they pay maybe 7k a year which is very comparable to what you pay at other Canadian research universities (except maybe in Quebec although I know that has been getting more expensive too).
 
It's not. You don't pay $10k per semester if you go to an in-state school because I just showed you the most expensive in-state schools.
 
Are you going to stop needing food and housing if you don't go to college?

No. Room and board is irrelevant because it's a cost that's going to exist whether or not you're in college. Most books can easily be pirated.
