Planning for College....

[Nickatilynx]

Holy shit!!!!!

My kids being both Canadian and British will help a lot.

For example....

They can study medicine at Oxford for GBP 3,000 pa (tuition)
If I move to Quebec they can study medicine at McGill C$17,000 for 4 years tuition

I'm very very pleased


Especially when compared to ANNUALl costs at US Colleges.

MC of Ohio 29,570
Michigan 28,814
Louisville 28,806
Iowa 28,575
MC of Virginia 28,526
Wayne State 27,691
Duke 29,249
Penn 31,450
Stanford 29,242
Wash. U. 31,700

Yes , I'm old and am having to plan for stuff like this.

Yep and you can't beat a Commonwealth education....they are allowed to teach you about evolution and other "way out" theories

I never knew Oxford was only £3,000 per year, with it being so affordable it's no wonder they only select the best.

damn Quebec is cheap ... !!

ANYBODY can go to college here in the USA if they really want to and can find a place to go that os affordable and a good college as well. Hell, I worked full time for a good portion of my time in school. I had one year where I worked full time at a casino an hour and a half from where I went to school.

There are a TON of resources to get money for school and it's worth the money you spend to get that degree.

I'm fortunate to live in a state with one of the best state school systems http://www.wisconsin.edu/ in the country. We have a series of two year center schools around the state where students can get their associates before transfering to a 4 year university to complete their education. There are a myriad of options for people to go to school, people just have to take the time to learn them and take advantage of them and not whine if they have to work while going to school.

Yah, I'm looking at getting my ass whooped on tuition, however, I have a way out.

Kai wants to go to FSU, and Killian wants to go to UoF.

http://www.florida529plans.com/ solves my problem all the way.

Now, if Kai can get a scholorship for football, I will be happy. He's 10 at 128lbs, I didn't weight that till about 13 or so. Added that I hit a growth spurt at 17, and he's gonna easy be over 260lbs. Perfect size for the position he's playing now, Defensive Left Guard.

So, I'm hoping in 8 years they will still want to go to Florida Schools.
