    Cost is a huge factor when determining what college to attend. Here at Wright State I don't feel as if I had to pay for anything that I couldn't afford outside of tuition itself. If you don't have a laptop, you can sign one out of the library for 4 hours for free (Mac or PC). A parking pass for the entire year is around $100.

    Wright State provides some of the best education you can get at a price that is a lot more affordable then the larger universities such as Ohio State or the well known Ivy league schools.

    WSU is definitely inexpensive. I am getting a great education for practically nothing!
