    RPI and Missouri State have large discrepancies in pay. Depending on his family's income, the difference in what he paid could be rather insignificant. The difference in average borrowing rate for the two schools is only $4k a year. (If he was lower income, I would advise RPI while if he was from a higher income family then MSU would likely be fine.)

    There is a reason people still go to more expensive schools. They do see utility in them. The subsidized state schools are a better value for families that bring in higher incomes and aren't as dependent on the school generating their starting career path. This is, of course, the opposite of what is preached to most low income kids.
    It depends on what the major is. RPI is skewed high because of tech focus. Misery state is skewed low because of all the non tech degrees.

    I love it here where I live now when I see the teachers at the local schools with their degrees from smu, Baylor, tcu, etc. really? Private school tuition for a degree that would have been a quarter as much at north Texas, Texas tech, etc. I guess if daddy was paying for it, but they aren't making any more then those that went to a public school. I for one, as a daddy, won't pay for a private school when there are suitable public schools. As long as they are accredited by the same organizations, they are just fine.
