At any rate, that is a very reasonable price, but the debate centers around paying nonresident or private school tuition for an ultimately pointless degree.
The real thing everyone has to do, is look how much it will cost them, how much their state schools will cost them, and then decide. It will also depend on how much each school offers you personally, if a state school were to offer you $10,000 a year in scholarships, and Riddle gave you a full ride (don't think it woul happen, but it could) then your probably better off with the full ride.
My only real advice on choosing a school/major is simple, do something you will enjoy and be interested in. If you don't do that, then there is no point in going to college.
