The price you pay for college : an entirely new road map for the biggest financial decision your family will ever make

Summary: Sending a teenager to a flagship state university for four years of on-campus living costs more than $100,000 in many parts of the United States. Many private colleges cost triple that. Lieber helps families navigate this journey, which has been compounded by a global pandemic and the resulting chaos in higher education. He asks the questions most parents don't know (or are afraid) to ask, and summarizes the research about what matters and what doesn't. -- adapted from jacket
