My Daughter and I both went to the same University (University of California) - although I got in-state rates, and for half of her time she was out-of-state. After a bachelors, I ended up with about $10K in debt, she had 5X that amount when she graduated. OTOH, she is expecting a starting salary which is about 5X what I got 35 years ago, so it may not be that bad.
