If college tuition and fees, books, and other charges total $9762, what is a reasonable savings goal for a family to meet or exceed the total cost of college?
A. $9800. Since the cost of going to college is $9762, you need to meet the savings goal of at least $9762, or else the person who is supposed to go to college may not even be able to go (If the college wants the full amount to be paid at the beginning of college) or miss out some things in college (e.g. going to college without a textbook).
