re: University set to charge students nearly six figures per year

Gallaudet University,

I grew up near D.C. (at the outskirts of their TV area) and used to hear about Gallaudet a couple of times a year. I don't think I've heard it mentioned in the four plus decades since I left that area.

No one should be paying 100K/year for GW. Even if you are crazy rich, the ROI just doesn't make sense.

If your kid gets into Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT or Stanford, you take every loan possible to get them that degree.

If you have planned for this and/or are well-off and can cash flow it, the other IvyPlus schools (the 8 ivies, MIT, Stanford, Duke & UChicago) are worth it.

Outside of that, unless your state flagship is straight garbage, the ROI for other schools just isn't there.
