I did not complete my degree at UChicago. I went in aware of the financial burden it would place on me and my parents, yet somehow optimistic of the potential returns. One simple fact changed this: realising that each class I was attending “costed”, or was rather priced at, about $200. The classes were great, the professors were lovely, the fellow students were wonderful. But are classes, professors, and fellow students any worse in the UK, Canada, or mainland Europe? It’d be sure to claim it so.
