What a Minnetonka High college applicant is writing for the NY Times
Money will be an issue for me when choosing a college. I looked at schools farther away, like Cornell University and University of California, Davis, but I just can’t afford to pay that much for an undergraduate degree. My parents have agreed to pay only the equivalent of in-state tuition, and I don’t want an exorbitant amount of debt when I get out of school.

Her choices at the moment: the University of Minnesota, University of Wisconsin - Madison and Iowa State University.
