What is the Price of College? Total, Net, and Out-of-Pocket Prices by Type of Institution in 2011-12

This March 2015 report from the National Center for Education Statistics asks the highly relevant question: What is the Price of College? Using data from a nationally representative study of students enrolled in postsecondary institutions in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, the findings are highly reliable and worth a thorough read. There are many interesting facts in the report, and the data are presented in convenient tables and graphs. For instance, the researchers found that private nonprofit 4-year institutions are nearly twice as expensive as public 4-year universities, and public 4-year tuition is, on average, more than three times the tuition of community colleges. These are just an example of the many fine details made available by this federal entity. The report is available online or as a downloadable PDF and a provided list of keywords will take interested readers to related reports from the NCES.
