The Consumerist has released its list of the top 25 most expensive colleges for 2008-09, and Wes has dropped out of the top ten! We’re currently listed as the 13th most expensive institution in the nation, with our tuition plus room and board summing to an even $49,000. Notably, Wes is fourth in the NESCAC (gee, that sounds familiar), behind Conn. College (5th; $49,385), Bates (6th; $49,350), and Middlebury (10th; $49,210).

@11:01:that’s because the richer colleges don’t have to charge as much. Yale or Harvard could let everyone go through free for a decade before they came close to running out of money.
