    My oldest in a junior in college and my youngest is a senior in HS.

    On the subject of in-state vs out-of-state, my son was offered $5k academic scholarship from several Colorado schools, University of Utah offered him a full tuition academic scholarship. Guess where he is going?

    Mine had his first day of High School today. So just the cost of food, an Xbox card and a flannel shirt once in awhile and he is happy.

    I just saw the in-state tuition for Colorado School of Mine Control, and it was very very expensive. I think it is 3x more than what it was when i was about to apply.

    One of my former co-worker went to school in Lafayette Indiana, and he said he was paying ~$900/semester.

    BTW, under or grad, I cannot stand quarter based schools. 1/2 of the school year, I would need to worry about registering for next quarter. I will recommend my kid a semester based school when she is about to go start her undergrad.

    Who is still doing that?
    UMinnesota was on that system when I considered it, but I believe they’ve changed.

    BTW, congrats and sorry, OP and others driving the freshmen off to college. I’m sure it is bittersweet for sure.

    Well we made it, holly shit is it hard traveling with 3 women. But everything went good and starting tomorrow we will have 2 busy days fri and sat. Sunday we have breakfast then a 2 hour formal Catholic mass, lunch and then we leave her and head home- I am sure my wife will be a fucking mess....
    The all in Notre Dame tuition for freshman is 68k to 72k depending on the major, books and meal plan.
    After her scholarships Our total bill was about 14k and she is paying half of that so $3,500 a semester is our cost - I cannot send her to any state schools for that.

    Sounds like a great deal! Have any podcasts or audio books for your wife to constantly interrupt with worries about your kid on the way back? Might help the time pass.
