While it's true that Yale U does charge that much for normal degrees, the seminary part (divinity school) of Yale U charges less than Concordia Ft. Wayne does at $21,642. Ft. Wayne wants its conquistadors to raid the US Treasury and otherwise come up with $21,150, and Concordia St. Louis wants not much less from its conquistadors.
Now, a M. Div from Yale U is probably worth every penny they charge (in worldly terms, of course), but a student paying that much for a LCMS M. Div. is taking a real risk--testing God even.
Someone might say that the Concordia sems help the student with tuition, but all the other universities and seminaries do as much or more proportionate to the total student bill, and nearly all of them are much less expensive to start with.
