    I find that in attending SUNY Albany that it is one of the cheaper state schools and thus I feel the amount I'm paying is worth the education I get out of it. Whereas is some private schools students have to pay for laundry, I on the other hand have free laundry and I don't pay as much as they do.

    In-state tuition with room & board for a full time student is $9,438. You have access to some great faculty from all over the world, many state of the art facilities, a large campus, and loads of opportunities for both work & play. You're in the capital of New York with a Law School, Med School & Pharmacy school right down the road.
