Her tuition is paid for now, thanks to some input from my folks. Of course, I still need to think about books, room, board, etc. I live in Florida and was able to lock the tuition cost in the year my daughter was born by purchasing a pre-paid plan.

Mine's about 17k a year.

We currently use a 529 account for both of our children as well but haven't mortgaged our retirement plans to cover their education costs. We planned out what we needed to do to reach our retirement goals and then fit college savings into that plan.
