Interesting, apart from anything else it does show that the UK remains very competitive in academic fees for a good aeronautical engineering degree.
Comparing approximately like-with-like, Georgia Tech comes out at US$25k.pa, whilst for a UK/EU eligible student doing Aerospace Engineering at Southampton would currently cost £3.3k (yes I know that's going to go up to £6k or so), or for a non-EU student
£13.8k (US$22.4k). So the UK degree cost at a top-rank University is similar or slightly cheaper for an American student to staying at home, add into which is the experience of spending time abroad, and that normally a UK degree is a year faster than in the US - which saves a lot of money.
