Yes, you're going to pay through the nose, but it's for a really good education. By the end, you will be well-rounded, since this is a Liberal Arts college and you have to take every subject. It's definitely worth it.

For 40,000 a year, Alma better be worth it. Thankfully, the college gives great scholarships and grants so you won't be paying for it on your own. The grad-school acceptance rating is massive, which is why we have a lot of science majors here. We are also a liberal arts college, so you don't get stuck learning about just your major. There are ways for you to learn about nearly everything you can think of.

It's quite expensive, but I have a feeling it will be worth it in the end.

It's very expensive to attend here, but I guess for a private college, it's worth the money.

Tuition keeps going up, probably to pay for all the construction they've been doing on campus. Then there's the hidden class fees that you can't plan into you're financial aid because you aren't charged them until the semester starts. A lot of labs, art classes, and music lessons have extra fees that you need to watch out for.
