In Reply to: How much $$ is a 4-year college degree near you, all tallied? posted by free.ranger on January 27, 2022 at 14:43:02:
Depends on if you go to Stanford....MIght go around 300 Large. Room+board with tuition. No optional extras....like a social life and phone bill
For Cal State San Marcos? Maybe 100 grand for 4 years IF you live at home IN STATE.
Out of state is more$$ and apartment rents in the 'student ghetto' can be substantial.
Doing something SANE like 2 years at a JC with courses targeted to a 4 year degree? First 2 years at Palomar College will run about 50 grand TOTAL. Less if you live at home.
College expenses can be largely 'It Depends'......In state or Out of state student? Some kind of qualifyer for lower tuition? Do you need substantial student loans or can you qualify for some grants? Did your parents have the foresight to establish a college savings account? (tax advantaged)
Lot's of 'what ifs' when dealing with the final cost. Even an athletic scholarship can be a golden ticket. Especially IF you use the ticket wisely and get a degree which PAYS.....And don't worry about going PRO......Maybe pick a 'minor sport' like Ping Pong or Lacrosse.....??
Too much is never enough
