Unless he’s getting into a truly top tier school, have him go to a state university for much less. Community college and transferring is also an option but the social experience of going to a 4 year university is unique and fun. If you have something local where he can live at home or work enough while in school to cover part of the expenses, great. Spend $30-40k instead. I went to a fine state school in California and have talked to a lot of CS grads. I’ve rarely seen significant value add for paying more for a mid tier school than whatever the cheaper average option is.
