Anywhere from $30K - $50+K per year for tuition.Why would anyone want to go to one of these schools?  IMO, people go to these schools because they are smarter than the average student and attend these institutions for a very specific and very reputiable degree program.  Or they are in their HS upper 1% of the graduating class and just throw a dart at a board full of these Ivy League schools and their wealthy parents cut the check or they get academic scholarships.</blockquote>
