I was speaking to the US situation, and agree most European schools are quite cheap in comparison. Not only in tuition, but in terms of their budgets; US schools spend 4-5X as much per student- so it isnt just about state funding.
Guessing those schools can't provide access to the exclusive social network you get by restricting admissions.
I'm sure you can get some exclusive networking done at Oxford, with 25% the cost per student as MIT.
