How to Pay for College
Smart Ways to Pay for Your College
Did you know that the average cost for tuition and room and board is $32,000 at a private college? Some Ivy League schools charge more than $40,000 each year. At a public college the annual cost is over $13,000. Your college costs include the tuition, fees for labs, athletics and activities, and room and board on campus. You’ll also pay for textbooks and supplies, computers, software and a printer, phone, transportation, personal expenses like laundry, clothes, and haircuts. Some of you will pay for sorority or fraternity fees or apartment rental if you live off-campus. Suddenly, your college costs seem astronomical. However, more financial aid is available now to help you pay for college, so few families have to pay the whole amount out of pocket.
In the long run, a college education pays for itself. Not only does college open up better career opportunities, and reduce unemployment. There are also indirect benefits of college that continue throughout your life. Studies show that college has a positive influence on health, community participation and sense of satisfaction. A college education is a wise investment.
Grab Financial Aid to Pay for College
Seventy percent of all college students receive some financial aid. Financial aid comes from many sources to help you pay for college. There are grants and scholarships which give you college money clear and free, that never has to be repaid. There are work-study programs at each college, with good pay with part of your earnings paid for by the federal government. The money you earn on a work-study program is entirely yours, and is never repaid. Student loans are money you borrow to pay for college and must repay after graduation.”
