Why is the cost of living for a college student so high?

Cost of living for a college student?

  • For a student going to University of Colorado- Boulder, what would be the approximate cost to rent an apartment near campus and live there? also, anything good or bad you have heard about the university? thanks!

  • Answer:

    Looked up student housing on craigslist - it looks like monthy rent is between 425-500 for shared rooms. As for cost of living - as a college student myself, I can live off of about 40$ a week, but not comfortably. Monthy groceries cost about 65-70$. Its advisable to get a good crappy bike, rather than bringing the good one up. Having a bike will reduce car maintenance fees (gas, fixing.. ect) I got mine for 9$ at a local thrift store, and with keeping up with its problems it has lasted me about 3 years.
