I am so grateful for my wife's Canadian citizenship. Our oldest started college at a top school in Canada, and all in tuition + room + board + ancillary costs is ~US$22,000. This article points out that the UC schools, for in-state students, is over $50,000. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/b...

But it's not really. I mean good that Canadian schools are affordable, but the listed price for a US public University is not what most in state residents pay. It's just super messy and depends on family income.

It’s what we would have likely paid in-state. The messiness is the point.
