Why is Oregon so fucking expensive???

And paying that much for an education in Florida is an affront to education.

Interestingly Florida has the lowest in state tuition for public institutions of all 50 states. So there must be some pricey private schools that skew the average

It’s not. These numbers are not the average cost that Oregon students pay. The two largest schools by students, by far, are UofO and OSU which cost ~13-14k for yearly in state tuition.

The only way it could be this high is if it’s something like the average of all Oregon school rack rates, which is def not the same thing.

It's including room and board for each state too.

Saw that but it’s Still not enough. Room and board is roughy similar to in state tuition at those two schools which would put the ave at ~28k.

Thousands of students commute to PSU, also, and pay zero room and board.

Yeah OR being so much more then WA for instance seems weird. Are there just a couple schools jacking up the average?

University of Florida is currently a Top 5 public university.

Actually I think they made it up to #3 or #2 public university. Which is weird, because when I went there it was #1 on the list of playboy party schools. It certainly wasn't great regards education.
