The cost is going up for just about everything, and college tuition is no exception. According to a nationwide survey published by College Board’s Scholarship Service, tuition at most American universities will be an average of 9 percent higher this year than last.
    The biggest increase will occur at private colleges. Public colleges, heavily supported by tax funds, will also increase their tuition, but the increase will be a few percentage points lower than their privately sponsored neighbors.
    As a follow up, the United Press International did its own study at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. At MIT advisors recommended that students have ＄8,900 available for one year’s expenses. Ten years ago the tuition was ＄2,150.
    An additional burden is placed on out-of-state students who must pay extra charges raging from ＄200 to ＄2,000, and foreign students who are not eligible for scholarships at state-funded universities.
    On the brighter side, the survey revealed that college graduates are entering the best job market since the middle 1960s. Job offers am up 16 percent from last year, and salaries are good, at least for graduates in technical fields. For example, a recent graduate in petroleum engineering can expect to make as much as ＄20,000 per year. A student with a liberal arts degree might expect to make about half that salary.
