Tuition In College

A lot of people will argue, that college is too expensive. Not everyone can go to college, for financial reasons. Also, they may get into college, but end up having to leave because they cannot afford the remaining balances; or, they received financial aid, but end up having to take out loans they are going to be paying back forever. It is like once they graduate they will be working mostly to pay off their student loan debt. This also discourages some students. In some cases, they will not even take the initiative to try because it is so costly. I do not understand why it cost so much to want to better yourself, and possibly put us in debt for the rest of our life just to receive a higher education. Not only has the cost of college risen over a period of time, but it continues to go up. Yes, they have alternatives for paying student debts, but what if you do not qualify? Lastly, you are not guaranteed a job just because you graduate and have a college degree(s).

The trend continues with the skyrocketing prices of college tuitions. This is not an uncommon issue the days of college tuition being affordable are slowly fading into the past. This conundrum has brought to light the idea of using tax money to help pay tuition. This idea has vast potential, but can it reach its potential.

“The writing in this essay is my own work. If I have used outside sources, I have acknowledged them through correct documentation.”

The author talks about college cost, and the effect it has on students and on how times it takes longer to graduate. This is an important topic because college cost has been a problem for many individuals for decades and it still is. College cost is something that shapes people's lives and it worries them because college cost is what determines if they're going to continue going to college. It’s something that people should take lightly because college is pretty expensive. According to the advocacy group complete college America, it cost 63,718 for one extra year to attend college. For students who take longer to finish school because of certain requisites, it becomes a toll because of the cost. According to Norton Field Guide to writing by Richard Bullock and Maureen Daly Goggin found a report on Los Angeles-bases campaigns for college opportunity, saying students who attend school 6 years instead of 4 years will lose 110,900 dollars in their lifetime. Many people in the work field and colleges expect students to attend school for four years. According to the NFGW, “nearly nine out of 10 freshmen think they will earn their bachelor degree within the traditional four years.” Yet In the NFGW quotes the U.S Department of Education and they report that “about 45 percent won’t have finished.”

In Life today a college education is no longer an option or privilege, but rather it is a necessity. We are raised to believe that a person needs higher education in order to succeed in life. There is a saying, “if you think education is expensive, try ignorance.” You may ask is college necessary? There are people out in the real world that have never set a foot on a college campus before and they are doing better than others that have their master’s degree. There are many views from both sides that have a good argument.

Imagine being someone who struggled throughout high school, but is constantly being told they need to go to college. If a student is constantly having problems with their learning, thinking, money, and support, why should they be obligated to continue their education when they are struggling today? The problem today is that people feel like they have no other choice but go to college to be successful. Many people today do not go to college, but get a job and slowly start to become successful. A person can work and gain experience and knowledge, which allows a person to move up. Since there are many jobs today that do not require a college degree, going to college should not be obligated by students after high school. College is not for everyone, and no one should be forced to go.

College tuition in America is the highest it has ever been. It is increasing higher than the rate of inflation. The rising rates are causing students to take out more student loans and making it harder to pay back those student loans after college. How do the students pay for the ever increasing cost of college? The solutions are making the U.S. government pay for college or continue having the student pay their own way through college.

The question here is, is college worth it? Many people question this especially high school students who are about to graduate. This debate is still taking place today. The common misunderstood saying is, if you have a degree you will then have a good job. But this is not the case because in today’s society there are so many people with degrees who still cannot find a job. The rate of unemployment is increasing rapidly on a yearly basis. High school students see it this way, if I can’t find a job with a degree then it’s not worth the time, and from there on they quit after high school. On the other side of the debate college education is no longer an option or a privilege, but rather it has become a necessity. The rate of students going to college is increasing every year plus the number of colleges being build is also increasing. In my believe college provides me with higher education that will help me in the future whether it’s with a job or an experience. College education means everything to me and my family because my parents left their home country and immigrated to the United States in order for me and my siblings to have a higher and better education. For me there are numerous reasons why college education is worthwhile, while other people might clearly disagree. About “80% of college graduates say yes college degree is worth it” (debate website). You do not need a college degree to become successful, there are many different paths to take. This study will

Have you attended college? If the answer is yes how long did it take you to pay off your student loans? If you didn't go did your decision to not get an education have to do with money? Many people did not attend college because it was too expensive and they could not find a way to pay for an education. Many student today are struggling to pay their way through school creating a higher dropout rate. On top of paying for tuition many students also worry about how to pay for their dinner that night or how to pay for either dorms or a house at the beginning of the year. College tuition is becoming way too expensive for the average family to afford putting their kid or kids through school it has turned into more of a hassle for many families rather than an opportunity to prepare young adults for their future.

In today’s society, multitudes of our high school graduates are being pushed and excessively encouraged to attend college. Attending these colleges has negatively affected many college graduates, such as providing attendees debt and wasted resources on attaining a college degree. However, the pros considerably outweigh the cons on the worth of a college degree. College is worth the cost because it gives graduates' ample opportunity and success, larger wages than that of non-college graduates, and gives graduates life-skills that will stupendously bene/fit them not only in the work force, but also later in life.

College costs have risen above the rate of inflation in terms of college tuition in the United States. Specific financial matters that are affecting students are the burden of student loans. The cost of college tuition is a significant argument today that is impacting not only parents of the students and students, but also the U.S government and taxpayers. Numerous individuals in the government are currently pushing towards free college tuition in the future, but there are still some concerns about whether this idea is the best way to improve access to higher education for those who can not afford college processes. There are two opposing views towards this impact that could affect everyone in the future.

“Higher education has so many challenges and private higher education has a special challenge of ever raising tuition cost.” – Ken Starr

Yale University is among the most prestigious in the country; a union of Ivy League schools upheld by nothing but their name and age. Though these schools like Yale are famously known as an expensive path for an equal education, they receive a surprising number of applicants. While there are several options for avoiding a crippling college expense, the price of a school like Yale is beyond steep. Like any business, you want to generate as much revenue as possible compared to your expenses, so while the cost of a college degree can be expensive, it clearly has a demand comparable to that of its price (Heakal). Tuition alone is an obstacle, but when the expenses are all totaled together, you can certainly see the

The Nobody State University when increasing the tuition fee should do this while ensuring that the university maintains healthy enrolment of students. The increase in tuition fee will not necessarily lead to increase in revenue. Theoretically, we can use the price elasticity concept. The concept explains the relationship between the responsiveness of demand towards changes in price (Cini 2015). Higher tuition fees will mean that newer students will prefer universities that are much cheaper. NSU goal to raise more revenue will not be achieved. The already existing students, however, will have no choice but to pay the new tuition fees. Getting higher education is every person’s needs and for the university to increase fees might make this a
