I’m sure it’s not the sole factor, but universities in many other parts of the world are partially subsided by the government.

  Then why didn’t you send your kid to school in your country?

    Sounds like you answered your own question there. Tuition for foreign students is expensive because the ones who come here almost always have family that can pay for it. Like I said above, no American is spending $70k per year for undergrad studies. The smart ones are going to community colleges, which are becoming free in some capacity across most states, building up a GPA, and then transferring to a University off scholarships.
    
    I spent 7 years in school without paying anything for tuition, everything was covered by scholarships. I’ve known many people with the same experience
