You hear so much talk about the price of college, it's easy to get intimidated - but how much does college really cost? The answer is "It varies." Colleges come in a wide variety and, depending on the choices you make, the price of a college education can be quite reasonable - especially if you think of college as an investment in yourself and your future. Let's look at the facts:

Nearly half (47 percent) of all full-time undergraduate college students attend a four-year college that has published charges of less than $9,000 per year for tuition and fees.

At the other end of the spectrum are private four-year colleges that cost $35,000 or more yearly in tuition and fees. These higher-priced colleges sometimes have bigger endowments and more grant aid available - which may mean that you can get more financial help to attend that institution.

At two-year colleges, the average cost for tuition and fees is $2,713. Learn about the two year college experience
