Name Date Statistics Project #2 PROJECT AWARENESS The purpose of this assignment is not only to assess if you are able to find the probability or conduct a hypothesis test. I wanted a purposeful project that is meaningful to most of my students. The importance of planning ahead for college is essential. For those who plan on attending a 4-year college, this will be a valuable piece of information. I do realize that some of you may not be attending a 4-year institution in the near future. However, this exercise will help you later in planning your education if your future plans seem to change. INTRODUCTION This topic is the average tuition/fee costs for a CSU public college. Since you will soon be transferring to a 4-year college, I thought this topic would be perfect for you to research. The College Board says that the average tuition and fees cost for a CSU institution is $7465 per year. Choose 10 of the 23 CSU colleges from the list below that you are interested in attending. Research online the actual tuition/fee for each institution per year. Note: you are finding the tuition and fees for an undergraduate student per year. You will then find the following probabilities and do a hypothesis test to verify the claim. Each conclusion should be written in words. You will also determine which colleges you would like to apply to.
