why do they charge out of state students way more?
Because in state tuition is subsidized by taxpayers and because they can.13/f/taiwan wrote:

i can't wait until i get my degree and start working. all this running around, doing school work and taking side jobs is taking a toll on me. do employers really believe that a degree automatically makes someone smarter?
this, pretty much.Jay wrote:

doesn't do much to keep the guidos from NJ/NY out, sadly
And get this, the illegals here in Cali have been trying for years to get in-state rates. Nevermind that would mean screwing legal out-of-state students even more.Jay wrote:

If they're paying state income tax then they should get in-state tuition... IJS...Ilocano wrote:

Wow, you guys have been replying faster than rabbits procreate.
When I was deciding what I wanted to study I considered doing an MBA but it just seems a little overrated and honestly I'm not very interested in studying business like that. It's also a lot more expensive than almost all other programs.
The tuition is about the same for all of the three schools I mentioned, around 5-7k a semester.
Any other schools are out of the question, unfortunately. When I started looking at schools back in january/february it was too late to apply for a lot of programs in many schools around California. Like UCLA, UCSB, UCSD etc. CSULB is the place I would most likely enjoy, with the beach and everything. When it comes to sports I don't really care that much, I work out at the gym and run so it doesnt really matter if they have a basket ball team or not.Ilocano wrote:
Hawaii is over-rated. If your choices are only CSULB or CSUF, pick CSULB. CSULB is the beach lifestyle (yes, the beach is just there), plus everything else that is SoCal. Do not go to CSUF, unless you like being bored as hell. CSULB does actually have pretty good Computer Science/Engineering programs, and interesting enough, a good Radio and Television program as well.
Neither are big sports colleges, so not much as far as reps though. Have you also considered USC or UCLA?
You're probably very right about that, and there are tons of jobs in IT here in Sweden as well. Although I'm not worried about not getting a job when I'm done, whether I stay in the US or move back.Macbeth wrote:

Unless they're working off the books, they're paying taxes. There's plenty of legal citizens that work off the books and don't pay a penny in taxes either...Ilocano wrote:

Why the west coast? Could've gone to school here in New York for much less.Snorkelfarsan wrote:

swedes are west coasters.
Our DREAM Act states that your family has to have paid state taxes for the past three years or more, and that you have to go to community college for your first two years.
Honestly, I think the "omg its unfair to out of state students" argument is specious... they don't pay state income taxes.

I did live in NYC for three months a couple of years ago and really liked it. But I wanna live where it's warm all year round, I'm fucking sick of the winter and pale skin. So I had my mind set on Cali from the start. I was actually admitted to University of Technology in Sydney in Australia but I'd much rather live in the US, to be honest.
It's 33C here today, son

Yeah, that's why I said all year round. Granted, NY is great in the summer but pretty cold for 6 months, and that's not very different from home.

I bet a beer that at some point during the winter you bitched about the cold and how you wanted it to be warm.Jay wrote:

After I graduate I'm strongly contemplating Seattle.
i don't get how people can prefer heat over cold. only time i would want warm weather is if i have a day off. plenty of activities to do in the sun.
I don't get how people can prefer either. DC in the spring and fall is fantastic, but that's it. Early and late (as in nearly spring) winter is bearable but not fantastic.
No way. I never bitch about the cold. At least if you're cold you can put on more layers. If it's hot and sticky it fucking blows. You either swelter or you sit inside in the AC all day (which makes having hot weather pointless in the first place).Hurricane2k9 wrote:
