Tuition at the University of Southern California (USC) for the 2016-2017 academic year will surpass $50,000 for the first time, topping even tuition at Harvard.
With a price tag of $51,442 for tuition and an additional $841 in fees, USC is sure to be in the running for the unofficial title of most expensive place in the country to get a college degree, the Los Angeles Times reported this morning. Harvard charges undergraduates $45,278 in tuition and fees.
USC’s new tuition figure is $1,978 higher than what current students are charged and more than Stanford’s $45,729 tab and the $47,600 students are charged at Yale, according to The Times.
Factoring in the cost of books and living expenses, the total cost for one Trojan year will be almost $70,000, USC officials estimate.
$70,000 a year? MORE than Harvard and Yale? Insane! Sorry, USC, you may be known as the "University of Spoiled Children" and have a big football program but you ain't no Harvard or Yale.
USC will cost nearly $300,000 for a 4-year college degree? What's the point? What good is a college degree if, after students graduate, there are no full time jobs for them (thanks to the Democrats in Washington, D.C. ignoring economic growth for 8 years) and college graduates have to live at home for the rest of their lives?
Thanks to liberalism-applied-to-education, a college degree is overrated and overpriced. Do all higher education professionals in America (the vast majority of which are liberal Democrats) need a large dose of reality? Yes. And when high school students wake up and stop going to college they'll get that dose.
