This was my Irish education:

1 degree, 1 postgrad + 1 MSc later. 7 years of university.

Total university fees: Roughly 5000 euros.

What would be the equivalent in the United States?

Zero to about $400k. Depends on university, grant aid, academic performance, and family ability to pay.

Edit to add: technically, cost could be negative. Mine was for a few semesters due to aggressive pursuit of scholarships. I know at least three people paid to study.
