why dose school have to cost 80k? for 4 year why can it not be like 20k. I know it can not be free but if it was 5k a year that be better than 20k

when I make like 15 25 sometime 30 k a year it just to much the 20k a year. I could do it if it like 5 k. maybe tell you kids after HS (high school) work for 4 year save up 80k and then you would not have take out a take out a loan. also they have work experience.

government help is like 2k a year so that 8 k off so still 72k and there like good see we help

it like no that not that much help. I know when you make stuff cheaper quality go down and I do not want that. I just want affordable school.

colleges donate computer labs but if they get 1 or 2 kids to go to there school they make there money back and they get like 5 10 kids to go school. They name the computer lab after the college so people can say how nice they are. It all seem like a tick to me.

if school was less then there be no need for scholarships. even family with money have try get aid. It be nice if work would pay for school then you have work for the same company for like 2 to 5 years.

the military will pay for school if you serve in the military. But when I ask them they ask me why I want work for then I tell them to go school. they ask why I want go school so I can get a good job and they say I can get a job any where but it not a good job.

college just see to be a rich man game. Some girl will not go out with guys who do not go college and that fair. you make good money just by working hard but it look down upon. factory worker truck driver oil field are look down upon. plus they just job for big strong men. smell men have a hard time try to be tough and strong in there. No one want brains at work just muscle man fast hard low pay work. muscle man are fine but I not big are fast but that all job want.

It doesn't. In the USA at a state university where you are a resident it's like $12,000 for tuition for a bachelor's degree and you can even shave that down to $9,000 if you attend a state/community college for general education courses in your first two years. It's also extremely easy to download ebooks of just about all of your text books for free. Anything on top of that is your living expenses. If you were living anywhere normally, you'd still have living expenses. Trying to pass them off as college expenses is dishonest.

Well cabrón, maybe you do your calculations in the wrong country? In Germany (and most of Europe) you get to study from undergraduate degrees till doctorate degrees free of charge.

And this will blow your mind: When you go to trade school here, you actually get paid by the company you are learning your trade from, for the whole duration (three years).

Lots of reasons. In the United States, mass government interference in the form of guaranteed student loans has meant more money in the system chasing the educational opportunities, which means higher costs. Conning kids into thinking a B. A. or B. S. is the minimum needed in the modern marketplace means more competition for those choices, also adding to the upward pressure on costs. Paying tenured professors $100,000 who teach meaningless, not applicable in the real world, classes. Others have undoubtedly added to the list.

It doesn't. The average cost for a 4 year degree in the US is about half of that, and that's the average. You can get a 4 year degree for a lot less than that. There are tons of scholarship and financial aid opportunities if you put in the effort to seek them out and apply for them. You can get a good education for much less than 5k / year if you work the system, which is not hard to do.

I worked my way through college and paid for the vast majority of it myself. It's not easy, but definitely doable.

Trade school: heating/or, electrician, and plumber. I write anywhere from 2,000 to 28,000 to a vendor monthly. It’s a seasonal and timing thing though. And we’re talking lots of properties

You're really kind of dumb to go to college anymore unless you have a clear path to a good paying career. Become an airline pilot, an electrician, an underwater welder, HVAC guy, plumber, heck even a truck driver.

Thats america.

It would be "SocIAlisM" to allow everyone to get a good education.

It's SocIALisM that has a government guaranteeing to Universities that the loans will be paid and will be given freely to teenagers.

Because it's a liberal institution designed to put people in debt for their entire lives
