I don't know what's driving current costs, it's certainly exceeding the general rate of inflation. I was able to pay my tuition at a state university by working part time minimum wage jobs, I don't believe that would be possible today. I'm estimating at least $100K for my daughter's undergrad education, I don't think she's going to earn $25K per year working at the local McD so I'll probably be writing some large checks.
