Now, out of state tuition at Auburn is $56k/yr…that is not worth it.


It’s $31k/year.

I would say an engineering degree from Auburn with $120k in debt is still worth it. Maybe not the most financially sound decision, but average entry level salary for Auburn engineering graduates is north of $75k and easily can be advanced into six figures by an early part of their career.

It’s not “worth it” if your in-state college offers an equivalent degree for 1/2 the cost.

If you are dropping that much change though you will go to A&M and it isn't close.
