Yes, that's why I specified
live-out costs--the live-in costs probably save money or break even, but that's likely only for a year given the size of the chapters. Do I think it's worth it? Yes, obviously. But I could see a lot of families balking at adding ~$15,000 (assuming one year of living in and meal plan savings) to the cost of a college education. Clearly, lots of UA families are willing to pay that, though.
