TL;DR Summary
Three colleges in Massachusetts, including Wellesley College, Boston University, and Tufts University, will now cost more than $90,000 a year for undergraduates, encompassing tuition, housing, and other expenses, prompting families to consider alternative options such as in-state community colleges and scholarship programs, as college prices continue to trend upwards. Paul Karger, co-founder of TwinFocus, advises setting up a 529 college savings account early and suggests asking for tuition contributions instead of holiday gifts from family members.
