College Funding

Sending your children or grandchildren to college is an expensive proposition.  The average cost of a public school education in 2008 was $14,333, and the average cost of a private school education was $34,132.  The cost of college has increased at 6.69% over the past 25 years, more than doubling the inflation rate over that time.  Source: "Measuring Up 2008," the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education.
