Costs in University of California - 加州大学的费用

Recently, many students occupied campuses to protest the ever-rising costs in University of California, such as Berkeley and Davis.

The products of these excellent public universities are a great deal for sure, but the fast rising prices are becoming a heavy burden to the families.

The costs in the ten campuses of the University of California (UC) vary a bit, but in general, are in the similar range.

For example, Collegedata.com website listed the costs at UC Berkeley as:

TUITION AND EXPENSES

Cost of Attendance	In-state: $32,635 Out-of-state: $55,513
Tuition and Fees	In-state: $12,835 Out-of-state: $35,713
Room and Board	$14,990
Books and Supplies	$1,202
Other Expenses	$3,608

In UCLA, the costs listed on Collegedata.com are:

TUITION AND EXPENSES

Cost of Attendance	In-state: $31,554 Out-of-state: $54,432
Tuition and Fees	In-state: $12,686 Out-of-state: $35,564
Room and Board	$13,979
Books and Supplies	$1,506
Other Expenses	$3,383

For the perspective, we should keep in mind that the California State Median Income for FFY 2011/2012 for a 4-person family is $78,666 [source: US Department of Health and Human Services].


最近，很多學生佔領校園，如在伯克利和戴維斯，抗議美國加州大學不斷上升的费用。
