That means student loans served as easy financing for university projects.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has long been clear to American families that the cost of college has gone up, even at public schools designed to be affordable for state residents. At the median flagship university, spending rose 38 percent between 2002 and 2022, according to the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The schools paid for it in part by pulling in tuition dollars,&#8221; the report added. The median flagship received more than double the revenue from undergraduate and graduate tuition and fees it did 20 years prior. Even accounting for enrollment gains, that amounted to a 64 percent price increase for the average student, far outpacing the growth in most big household expenses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United States&#8217;
