I was one of those college kids; my fraternity brothers and I would go there with like 12 people and 3 cases of beer and eat dumplings while getting trashed for hours.

Granted, we knew we were the worst so we'd leave a 50% tip lol

  1. Drexel's a private university there's no in state vs out of state

  2. it doesn't cost 60k a year, it costs $16-18k a quarter in tuition, and you only have 12 quarters to pay for over a 5 year program putting the base tuition cost around 200k without financial aid

  3. everyone gets substantial financial aid at Drexel; I got 50% off tuition, so that leaves $100k in tuition

  4. Drexel students get 3 coops in a 5 year program, and I earned an avg $20k each coop, which leaves $40k

  5. FAFSA loans account for a little over $6k a year, and over 5 years I got $31k in FAFSA loans leaving $9 in tuition

  6. I worked as a barback for 3 summers, earning $6k avg each summer covering for total $18k

So I graduated with a net +9k after my time at Drexel, and had paid my parents back completely before I even graduated. But sure, go ahead and tell me about how privileged I am because I liked to have fun with my friends every now and then.
