美国大学学费攀升至新高。如今,在美国一些顶尖名校攻读学士学位,四年总费用可高达近50万美元。这一趋势似乎没有放缓迹象。
College tuition costs in the US are reaching new heights. Today, a bachelor's degree at some of America's top schools can cost upward of nearly half a million dollars over four years. And the trend doesn't seem to be slowing down.
6月,普林斯顿评论为其2026年最佳大学榜单收集了一份名单,列出了15所年标价超过10万美元的美国大学。
In June, The Princeton Review collected a list of 15 US colleges with sticker prices exceeding $100,000 annually for their 2026 Best Colleges release.
这些数据通过对2000多所高校的机构调查获得,包含每位本科生的学费、杂费、住宿、餐饮、交通、书籍及其他费用的年度总成本。
The numbers, collected through institutional surveys of over 2,000 colleges, include the annual costs of tuition, fees, housing, food, transportation, books, and other expenses for each undergraduate student.
对许多人来说,选择这些学校意味着终身承诺——以学生贷款债务的形式。
For many, the choice to attend one of these schools comes with an attached lifelong commitment — in the form of student loan debt.
但这些院校中也有许多学生享受慷慨的经济援助,从无贷款援助包到为收入低于门槛的家庭提供免费学费甚至更多。在一些学校,这笔投资也能通过毕业后的高收入得到回报。
But many others at some of these institutions also benefit from generous financial aid, ranging from loan-free packages to free tuition or more, for families below an earnings threshold. At some of these schools, the investment is also matched by high earnings after graduation.
