To start, I think college tuition is way too expensive. Many students who are fresh out of high school, ranging from 16-year-olds to 19-year-olds that have little to no experience in managing money, time, and energy towards their spendings and are new to financial independence, should not be paying anything higher than $15,000 towards their college education.
Not just that, families from around the world cannot afford to spend huge amounts of money for their child’s education. I do not think college should be completely free, but the cost of tuition should definitely be lowered to accommodate those who want to prepare for their futures.
Teens who have left their parent’s home and are starting to look into colleges or universities should be allowed to continue their path in schooling without needing to take out big portions of their student loans. College should not be completely free, but tuition should be adjusted to allow students and families to pay more comfortably.
