Is Georgia the only state that you can get a cheap state education that’s really good? Georgia tech is literally 10k a year. You can get an undergrad degree for under 50k.

Georgia sucks at everything but I guess our colleges aren’t terrible

If you’re in state you can go to any state school in Georgia with free tuition as long as you keep a certain GPA. Honestly a super smart program not sure why more states don’t do this.

California colleges are cheap if you live there...

Sure, it's luck to an extent - but if you're qualified for a top school, you'll get into one of them. It's not Harvard or bust lol. Doesn't really relate to what I'm saying any way. California has UCLA, UCB, UCSB, UCI - they're all great and much better than what many smaller states have. When I graduated, my options were private schools equivalent to UCLA/UCB at 3x the price

In state Texas, e.g., UT, A&M… In state Indiana, e.g., Purdue. Went to all and tuition was dirt cheap

Maybe a better question is what state doesn’t have good in state education

MCK agreed on the convo but I think those schools are completely fine.

No they aren’t Ivy League but they’re all quality schools and the ROI is incredible on those degrees p

UT Austin, great school affordable.
UVA & WM, less affordable, still great.
UCB and UCLA, great and affordable
GT, great and affordable

It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.
