* Public vs. Private: Public universities were significantly cheaper than private ones.
* Institution: Prestigious universities charged more than smaller, less-known schools.
* In-state vs. Out-of-state: Out-of-state students at public universities paid considerably higher tuition.
* Program of Study: Some programs, like engineering or medicine, might have had higher fees.
To get a sense of the range, you'd need to look at specific universities' records from that year. You might find some data in university archives or historical publications. Expect to see a range from a few hundred dollars per year at a public in-state institution to several thousand at a private university.
