Maybe the reasoning was this...?

They have two brains so they're two students learning.

They have one body so it's just one working

I had a class with them in college. IIRC they were originally getting two separate degrees, but eventually decided to pursue a teaching degree specializing in math; which I want to say was more aligned with Abby’s first choice

Bethel was most known for their religious culture so I imagine their decision to go there was more motivated by that rather than the outright cost (its cost, for most people, was commensurate with a nice private school then).

Somewhat related: I’m not religious anymore but the old joke was that it was a place where some girls went to in order to get their MRS degree… (to become a Mrs. To get married)
