Here in the United States, how much you pay for tuition is contingent on a couple of important things. First, whether or not you go to a public university. Public costs about 1/5th of what private costs here in Texas.
Next is if you're a minority. Regardless of what you do in high school, if you're a minority, you pay MUCH much less than a say... a middle class white guy who did really well in high school. (cough)
There are so many scholarships for minorities and almost none out there for white people, it seems almost a disadvantage to be white in the university system, not that I'm bitter or anything, and that's not to say that a lot of the minorities don't deserve it.
Sorry for the rant. It's late and this subject gets me frustrated.
