If you go to Virginia Tech; Personal tutoring is included in your tuition, my lab fees are only $68 and I am a Chemistry major, Healthcare is included in your tuition, and if you buy your computer from their bookstore, it is fully covered for all four years. Best. University. Ever.

Gas! It really starts to add up so does the cost of food if you don’t pay attention to your meal plan.

My school gives us a computer with all the programs we need and that’s included in the tuition fortunately. But defiantly parking permits are a bit pricey.

My school has a Mac lab, so if you have a mac computer/laptop, they will work on it for free. Although we do have to pay $70 per year for a parking permit.

I had to buy an trumpet…that’s $2200 down the drain. Also had to buy a parking permit, which ran me $300. Not to mention they nickel and dime you based on the class you take. There is a $15 fee for every music class, fees for history classes, fees for piano classes, you name it. And my school raised tuition by $50 a credit for music majors.
