College education in the US could soon top $100,000 per year at some schools

A New York Times report outlined students at Vanderbilt University paying almost $100,000 a year in total college expenses.

Vanderbilt University has made headlines after reports revealed that some students will be facing a staggering cost of attendance nearing $100,000 per year.

According to a report from the New York Times, a letter sent to a newly-admitted engineering student at Vanderbilt totaled the cost of room, board, personal expenses, and a high-end laptop at $98,426.

While this price tag at Vanderbilt is considered an “anomaly” by the Times, as only a small percentage of college students will pay a similar amount, the trend of soaring college admission costs still raises concerns. It is predicted that a dozen or so colleges may reach similarly high costs in the coming years as college tuition continues to rise.

  1. Key kids- wanna make a killing? Forget college. Find a tradesman (or woman)- follow them. Learn. Ask questions. Make your self useful.

  2. Right on, go through apprenticeship, learn a trade. Join a Union for good pay, safer working conditions, health benefits, and a liveable retirement.
