The 20 Most Expensive Colleges in the United States

1. Columbia University

One of the most famous universities in the world and a giant in New York, Columbia has the country’s highest admission costs as of 2019. With an acceptance rate of only 5.51%, this college’s high price isn’t enough to scare away applicants. Almost 33,000 people applied to study here in 2018. That number is crazy compared to the around 2,300 students that actually end up getting accepted. Great academically, the prospect of being in New York is also a huge draw for many prospective students.
