Congratulations, class of 2026!

 

For many new college students, now is the time to pay tuition for college, and sometimes their college decision is based on financial data.

This dataset contains information about private and public colleges in the US, where these institutions often offer different tuition for

 in-state and out-of-state students.

 

Using the provided data:
- Create a list of 4-year colleges by state that includes the total payment (tuition plus room and board) in 2020 for private colleges and public colleges for in-state and out-of-state students.
- Find the top 10 schools that give the most significant discounts for in-state students.
