if a 4 tear school's tuition is 30k, is total tuition not including the living coast simply 30k x 4= 120k?

and also it applies to 3 year program? (ex tuition 50k x 3 = 150k?)

Not so much because you didn't factor in accrued interest.

Magically my $108,058 turned to 142,923 inluding the 6 month break to find a job.

I thought I borrowed closer to $120k, though. Not sure how its only $108,058. Cant figure that out. But anyway, yeah. Dat intrest. Especially since Obama didnt sign away my subsidized loans until 3pd.....it could have been worse!

Also, tuition goes up every year, so assume later years cost more. Sometimes there is a differential for "grad school" years and moreso for rotations.
