Grand Rapids Community College

Free Community College for All Millions looked onward, anticipating what issues the President would address in this year’s State of the Union, would it be ISIS, tax policy, immigration, or maybe healthcare. On January 20, 2015, President Obama at his State of the Union Address, shocked the nation by proposing free community college for all Americans. The proposal for free education is arguably the biggest attempt at economic and social reform we have seen since President Franklin Delano…

Out of State Tuition Colleges charge students that live out-of-state higher tuition than students that live in-state. Students should be allowed to be considered as residents before the age of 23, even if their parents are unable to move with them. College students should be wary of the many ways that can qualify for lower tuition, instead of paying more money to receive the same degree. Students should not have to pay more money to attend a college that may be a better suit to them.…

students. The counselor should actively listen to the student and build a professional relationship in order to build trust. Equally important is the ability of the counselor to be resilient and to teach resilience. A counselor should develop a community from the school’s programs and faculty to support themselves…

Looking for college is a very stressful challenge that most teens face. My main requirements for a college are the location, selectivity, tuition and fees, campus life, and job placement after graduation.. The first school that I am considering to attend is Arizona State University. ASU is large, public, four year university. It is located in the small suburban city of Tempe, Arizona. It has an admission rate of eighty percent, admitting approximately 17,465 people a year. Admission…

adults who realize that “free college” is not free at all. For college students paying tuition it could be hard to see the big picture. If college is “free” people will be paying that $70 billion through taxes and eventually those who are in college now wishing it was free will have to pay for it too in the future. Whether or not free college is a good idea is not the point, it is that this may be part of the reason the Democratic Party is divided when it comes to Sanders by age. Another reason…

in the Dominican Republic, a developing country, where a few have the opportunity to continue their education passed the secondary level, influenced me to go to college. Deciding to attend to DelTech was a decision I made primary upon economic reasons. With young immigrant parents I cannot rely on college savings to pay for college. I depend on scholarships, financial aid, and loans. However, through the SEED program, I can be attended to DelTech two years for free. In addition, if I take…

Free community college for the first two years around the whole country many would either like this idea or dislike it. This idea was brought by President Barack Obama but some students from Rio Hondo College are disagreeing with his idea. Some think this isn’t a very good idea because there are some people who can afford paying for it and those who get low income get help which is practically free for them already. As in others think that it should be free which would allow students that want…

College education should be free to benefit the lives of everyone. In the past, several political figures have supported free college education. These political figures include Rutherford B. Hayes, John Adams and the candidate for the democratic nomination of the presidential election of 2016, Bernie Sanders. These political officials acknowledged the issue of having to rely on loans to pay for college education. College education should be free to give young adults more opportunities to pursue…

say they cannot afford a college education. Paying for a good education is extremely expensive these days and some families cannot afford it. Some people say a college education should be free for people who cannot afford it. Should it be completely free, or should it be discounted? I think that college should not be completely free, but should be discounted for people who need it most. Tuition free colleges will not have the resources to serve additional students if college is free. Also, upper…

A controversy in this year’s election is the price of college tuition. As stated by procon.org, Donald Trump has said that universities shouldn’t be free and that it is too expensive from a federal standpoint. Clinton though, believes that students shouldn’t have to borrow funds to pay for their books, fees, and tuition if they choose to attend a four year public college. She also believes that a community college education should be free. In that plan, students receiving pell grants could use…
