» Read MoreThey might as be well handing out the tuition for free! Classes, for the most part, are really well organized. Although I can only speak for mostly the engineering classes and a couple math classes I am impressed at how much I learned. This my classes have cost me about $8,000 and I have taken 11 classes (36 credits), so that's roughly $222.22 per credit. Also the professors here understand you need to save money and they try to get cheaper books or make it so you don't need a book or can use an older version of the same book. Watch out for the campus book store though they really do rip you off 90% of the time. I would definitely look online for books and rent them or buy international editions of books when you can. The dorms I feel are a little on the expensive side but they really aren't that bad. I am in a 4 person suite and we have a living room, personal bathroom, and each have our own room. We have great heating for the winter and two mini fridges, two microwaves, and a sink. It is about $10,000 give or take. I also like how they don't kick you out during holiday breaks. I stayed on campus for most of winter break (but the cafe wasn't open so you have to get your own food). So I spend about 9 months of the year here on campus and that $10,000 pays for my room and 2 meals a day, everyday, and $300 to spend elsewhere on campus for food and other necessities. So that's a little over a grand a month for rent so in all reality it really isn't that bad, but I can say that if you rent an apartment with a buddy or two you will save a lot of money not living on campus.
» Read MoreA great value for in-state students. Tuition is about half to one third what you might pay t a private school and the quality of education is top notch.
» Read MoreAfter scholarships, I am only paying $835 this semester for tuition. I am very impressed with the education I am getting here, and for the price it is unbeatable.
» Read MoreTuition like any University is high, however you will notice when you get into your classes with Professor who are passionate about their work, that the money you have spent is worth it.
