A world of free college education
Imagine going to college to only focus on learning without having to spend time worrying about your college tuition. If college education was free more people would attend, and students would be more focused on their future career. According to Forbes, the average student still has student loans that they need to pay off. By making education free to the public, students will be able to keep more focused on the career they are interested in.
With free education people would be able to express their talents and get on with life faster than they would with having to constantly be working to pay their college tuition off. According to CNN Money, an average public college will cost around $10,440 a year. For the students that have to pay for their education themselves that can be rather pricey.
Only about 10% of students receive half of there tuition provided by their family, according to Forbes. That means on top of learning and long nights of homework, students normally pay $5,000 or more a year on education without help from their family.
When students with loans graduate college it can be rather hard to get on with their career, when they still need to pay off their loans. According to Forbes, college graduates still have an average of 75% of their loans to pay off. In the long run that can make it harder to buy a house and get insurance.
Many students would love to go to college, but they can not afford it. According to Huff Post 23% of people who do not attend college can not afford it. With 16% of people saying that they would rather work than go, and 11% say that they need to support their family rather than to go to college.
The price for college education has drastically increased over the last decade. Elementary through high school students that go to the public school get free education with a few payments for activities and sports. Paying for an education is unnecessary, education is something that you will need to be successful. College education should be free, everyone needs to learn something for your future job and without education no one could express their ideas to the world.
