SMU cost 2011-12

Post by bubba pony »

Just got the Dear Parent letter for SMU tuition 2011-12

Tuition $ 39,430 increase of 5.9 percent (same as last year)
Housing 8490 increase 3.9 percent
Board 4725 increase 3.5 percent
Total $ 52,645

take this total, compound it over 4 years at 5% = $226,906 that is what a 4 year education will cost you if you are an incoming freshman.

There was a 5.9% tuition increase last year? So are the job opportunities, quality of education, and costs of education that much more expensive or do they just stick it to you for good measure?

Nothing that is out of the ordinary for institutions across the country with these increases.

Well at least the degree is getting better and better, and you know they are putting some of that money to the $1.2 million spent on flowers.

I will not make age an issue in this campaign. I'm not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.
