Private American universities charge roughly $60,000/year in tuition. Most students don't pay the full amount, but the US is by far the most expensive country in which to pursue post-secondary education.
In Japan, private universities cost about 1.5 million yen ($13,476)/year.  National universities, which are publicly supported, charge far less: 538,000 yen ($4,833) per year.
