Emily's project (internation tuitions)This is a featured page

ok, so I've found a list of the top 200 universities worldwide;

what I'm doing is comparing tuition rates- whats the cheapest.

What I'm hoping to finally do with my project is find out WHY whatever is the cheapest is...

I've been thinking about changing the format of my project to show price if you were an American student, and price if you were a citizen of that country (its been difficult defining rates thus far)...

this is how the top universities were put where they were...

What I think I might do now is get a hold of all of the possible financial aid options; I'm already in contact with Oxford University and Oslo University, but I have yet to get a hold of other major universities such as Princeton, Harvard, and Cambridge.

I'm hoping to start setting up an e-mail chain and gather all my infortmation (directly from the university's office of admissions)

Hopefully this will go well...

Wish me luck!!
