College tuition for students is a rather large investment and considered to be one of the most expensive to make. As college tuition prices are continuously increasing so is the cost of housing. The average American family is finding it more and more difficult to be able to have a fair shot at affording to go to college. Although there are numerous possibilities, the cost of higher education for student is still too high and implementing a solid accreditation process and examining the student loan crisis happening could help improve a lot of problems.

College tuition has been an increasingly intense topic of discussion over the years. The costs of higher education have been debated by many people, and it has been discussed as to whether costs are becoming too high for students to afford. College has become more and more popular, and now as many as 20 million students attend universities reported by The National Center for Education Statistics (1). The value of a college degree is immense, but college tuition is becoming too expensive for students to afford, and furthering the problem are students’ lack of knowledge on how to pay and earn money towards their college degree.

Research indicates a steep upward trend in the cost of higher education throughout the 20th century. In recent decades, America has witnessed a widening gap between inflation and tuition. An incoming freshman at a typical college incurs charges for tuition, university fees, books, room and board,

There is no escaping the fact that the cost of college tuition continues to rise in the United States each year. To make it worse, having a college degree is no longer an option, but a requirement in today’s society. According to data gathered by the College Board, total costs at public four-year institutions rose more rapidly between 2003-04 and 2013-14 than they did during either of the two preceding decades (Collegeboard.com). Students are pressured to continue into higher education but yet, the increasing costs of books and tuition make us think about twice.

College is a head turner, eye catcher, and attention grabber. From making the decision to even attend to selecting the perfect school, the whole experience turns out to be incredibly stressful and multiple aspects go into what seems simple at first glance. The cost of attending college is on the rise. Parents and students anxiously await scholarship letters to help with these rising costs of education. State schools usually offer a financial advantage, but a new “law” is being proposed - free in-state college tuition to those students with a 3.5 GPA or higher. Few benefits are available and numerous disadvantages are present when it comes to this recently produced regulation.

College tuition has increased throughout the past decade, with little change on making the costs more affordable. With the recession state spending on higher education has decreased by 20 percent, and colleges have raised tuition, passing the costs onto students and their families. This paper will analyze Hillary Clinton’s New College Compact, and how the compact will alleviate the cost barriers and allow for affordable, higher education. Using Standfort & Moulton’s multilevel and effective policy implementation practices, this paper will discuss the merits of the plan and how well the College Compact attempts to solve college affordability, but does not take into effect the unintended consequences, such as, actor cooperation or the specifics on how the policy will gain funding.

The benefits that students are allotted under the Comprehensive Articulation Agreement are important to anyone who plans on transferring from a N.C. community college to a public institution. The first of these benefits is the Transfer Assured Admissions Policy, which guarantees admission to N.C. institutions.

In recent years, the soaring cost of college tuition has angered many students and parents, leaving many wondering where they will come up with the funds to pay. While college is still a pretty sound investment for most career paths, the cost of an education has outpaced general inflation by almost double, leaving many families simply unable to shoulder the fiscal burden without incurring large amounts of debt. How did we get to where we are today? A big part of it has to do with how colleges themselves have changed and the ways our cultural outlook on higher education has evolved. More students than ever are heading to college, and expect better resources from schools each and every year. But have colleges gone too far? Part II.A discusses the history of congressional acts that have over the years increased federal educational spending while showing how college tuitions have drastically gone up. Part II.B examines how the continued investment in college at current and future prices will affect society. And Part II.C assesses different countries debt problems, why they are not in as much trouble as the U.S. and what we can learn from them.

Filmmaker and documentarian Andrew Rossi has restated the hot-button issue nowadays through his movie, Ivory Tower. After watching his documentary, I have learnt about the realistic possibilities of becoming debtors of students after colleges. Consequently, a large range of students has stood up to demonstrate this idea. He offered the remarkable experience of Cooper Union as a case in point. The fact that the tuition fee of post-secondary institutions within 30 years rises rapidly up to 1120% startles everybody. This exploding statistic, however, is led by the intension between colleges to expand its facilities and programs. Also, the movie informs its audience

The purpose of this report is to inform the chancellor of the issue surrounding higher education. The issue of higher education is that it’s failing to give millions of student’s quality degrees at a reasonable cost. College costs and student debt have been rising for the past years and it continues to rise. States don’t invest enough in schools to make colleges more affordable which leads to an increase of tuition cost and student loans.

Presently, the availability of educational opportunities at the college and university level is a critical state and personal interest given the needs of the state for a well-educated workforce which has never been greater. Too many, the focal point of attending college is receiving a high paying job in the future. Unfortunately, in most states, tuition is on the rise and students who come from low-income families find themselves struggling to fund their education. According to legislatures, “The cost of college in New Jersey, as in the nation, continues to grow faster than the rate of inflation.” (State of New Jersey 1). In the national financial aid policy resources that are typically given to the neediest families are shifting towards

David Hume once said “Truth springs from argument.” I will adhere to the analysis on Brookhaven’s college policies. Policies are implemented to protect and insure the success of students. At this community college their guidelines are stated under the academic information that course prerequisites are required in order to take certain classes. This ensures that student will be prepared with at least minimal knowledge for an advance course. But many students at the college feel that by taking these mandatory classes they get delayed from taking more classes that actually matter towards their degree. Studies show that many students that have to retake a prerequisite course end up switching their majors or dropping out of college because the class

Today colleges are growing more and more necessary for attaining a solid path towards a successful career, yet the rapidly increasing cost of tuition is driving students away from their dream of attending college, due to the preposterous amount of money that is now being demanded by colleges across the nation and world as a whole. It is sad to see students being turned away from a successful future due to the money-hungry nature of the universities that dot the globe. More and more impossible it is becoming to have a “rags-to-riches” scenario that used to highlight the American Dream, as if a student doesn’t have the riches to afford a higher education and the tuition that is drug upon its coattails, then our society is doomed to be clothed in rags forever, unless major changes are brought about to restructure and end the indefatigable growth of tuition rates across the board.

According to The Rising Cost of College by College Choice, since 1981, the total cost of college has gone up by 500% (2). College tuition has increased faster than inflation and even when state subsidies increased, college costs still increased (2-4). One possible short-term solution to the problem is introducing programs that would help improve financial literacy among students and their parents. By educating students and their parents on how to properly budget, college could seem to be more affordable than previously thought (Holland par. 34). Another solution, based on an article, is making students responsible only for the principle in a loan and making public colleges pay the interest. This would cause colleges to lower their costs since this gives colleges incentives to make college cheaper, because colleges don't want to pay interest on their
