Several higher-ranked universities, however, including the University of Texas at Austin, Purdue University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Ohio State University, and the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill have all managed to keep lower tuition rates. Tuition at the University of Florida, ranked number nine on the U.S. News 2018 Top Public Colleges and Universities list, charged $6,381 for resident undergraduate tuition this year. The UW, ranked number 18 on that list, charged $10,974. According to the OPB, the UW’s sticker price doesn’t nearly cover all of the costs associated with educating students either.
