294 Picking A University

==

 A:I’ve never heard of AmLion College. Could you...                                                                                     
 B:Of course sir, let me give you a brief overview.  AmLion College is located in the center of New York city. The school covers a      
 wide range of academic subjects; and eighty percent of the courses are transferable to other state universities. And, last year        
 AmLion College was ranked number one in terms of graduate employment.                                                                  
 A:Interesting, and what about the tuition fees, then?                                                                                  
 B:You’ll be looking at somewhere around fifteen  thousand US dollars per semester.                                                     
 A:Okay, well.                                                                                                                          
 B:And, did I mention our on-campus housing? Students can stay in our newly renovated dorms for as little as three thousand dollars     
 per month!                                                                                                                             
 A:Sounds good. Well. I’ll just grab one of your flyers.                                                                                
 B:Sir, you got the wrong flyer. Sir, sir!

And a semester is half of that.
