since residents are complaining about the tuition of PSU while it seems that Penn State U, a public school though, does not get much funding from PA government. see this:

That’s wild!  I think that is part of the reason that many people who really want that “Penn State” degree go to their local statellite campus and commute.  The tuition is a little cheaper and you don’t have to pay room and board.  

I went to one of the PASSHE schools in the early 90’s.  It was the lowest tuition in the state, from what I could find at the time.  It looks like annual tuition has gone up about $3,000 total, which isn’t too terrible.

Many institutions cost that much for an undergraduate degree, some people pay up to 80K or more for an associates & bachelors combo as they don't know about the alternative credit option. These are the private, non profit institutions we're talking about... for the for-profits, it may even go up higher than that...

Penn State isn't cheap.  A whole degree out of state would cost you well over $75,000, and that's online!
