Replying to Skiing The After Years

So. I'm looking to go to a college school with tons of skiing in it. Can anyone tell me a GOOD but CHEAP school  in the west( with a good business or medical program). Like Boulder University is sort of out of the question because its 40 G's And U of Utah is good because its only 17 G. My parents are being super gay about me going to a college far away (i live in chicago) especially if its for skiing. They think im just going there to ski and waste my time and not achieve anything. So ignorant. So im looking for a good school and persuade my parents to let me enjoy the next 4 years of my life because who knows if anyone has time to ski after college. +kk for quality answers.
