Cost of Universities

https://www.topuniversities.com/student-info/student-finance/how-much-does-it-cost-study-us

$35k - private $10k - in state state university $4k - community college

But this does not include room and board. If you add that [1] -

It's another $10k on average. So the state university student pays more for room and board than tuition on avearage.

Thus, the private university is $45k/year with room and board included.
