Is an Ivy League undergrad education worth $200k?
 

Any opinions out there?

I'm talking about for those of us who have kids that won't qualify for financial aid, but on the other hand, aren't wealthy either.

I admit that I'm biased towards thinking it is not worth the cost in most cases.

Not to mention the very good private schools around here. Cost above 20k per year for tuition.

3 kids

160k x 3 through 12th grade

200k x 3 for college

= 480 + 600 = 1.08 million

versus good public education ($0) + BYU (2k/semester tuition)

I agree.

Not a Dartmouth education, no. Some others, yes.
