Some textbooks have more than a thousand of pages and are very expensive to purchase. The e-book is the best alternative for college students. It has great choices for all college students which can help, solve problems and save…

Area 1: Attack Significance My partner says no offering free college education might cause students who have financial difficulties end up looking for alternative ways to meet their material demands. I don’t quite agree with this point because for many college students the primary reasons that they want to be sugar babies are that they can be brought to the fancy restaurants, be provided with generous gifts, and probably with tuition subsidizes. In an article written by Leroy, he mentions that…

Teens often face exceeding amounts of pressure to attend college in fear that they will not be able to find employment without a degree. Schools contribute to pressure by providing students with an abundance of work, information, etc. to take in during a small amount of time. Students set high goals for themselves, and suffer crushing disappointment when they do not achieve these goals or perform at a lower level than one’s envisions as acceptable. As admission to college becomes harder to gain,…

should be paid for by the gouvernement. Seeing as the price is so prohibitive, paid education would permit an easier financial situation to certain families, a better mental health and would prevent debt at such a young age. First of all, the cost of university or college is often too expensive for low-income or large families. For one, tuition fees vary depending on the program and/or school. According to College Board, the average cost of tuition and fees for the 2015–2016…

What do you think about high school vs. college? Many people have their own different opinions on this. Some people say that college makes the student become independent, helping them mature. It helps them mature by letting them do certain stuff on their own such as deciding what classes they want to take and when, making room in their schedule to study and take care of adult responsibilities like filling out paper work. Others say that high school makes the student dependent on everyone around…

There are thousands of scholarships people can apply for, there is financial aid, and there are grants. Scholarships, financial aid, and grants are all constructed in order to assist in paying for college tuition. Lamar Alexander states that public colleges, where a person can earn a two-year degree, are almost free for students who come from a low-income family, and attending a four year college in the person’s area is within financial reach (Alexander). Alexander is telling the…

Is college really worth the debt, the hard work and the headaches you’ll receive? With jobs getting harder to get into and standards being raised, attending college can be a big advantage when applying for a job or starting a business. With all studies and statistics taken, it can be proven that college can be a big step in someone’s life. Numbers and percentages can speak for themselves there is a great difference between those who have attended college and those who haven’t. Workers with…

considering the low participation of my school experience, I applied for the guide of my university and I only show people the routes from David Center to Student Life Center, which I was so familiar that I can finished this “trip” via closing my eyes. During this event, I met a second-year biology and science student, B, who came from Indian. He told me that is the 10 + time to do volunteering in university and he was interested in it, by the way, he attended the previous one as well. In other…

obtain a degree. This motivation might be the importance “of gaining respect/status, bringing honor to their family, and helping their family out financially after they are done with college” (Bui). My parents insanely worked to help me be at this university. They are still helping me in every way possible, which is why I want to help my parents financially after I get my bachelor’s degree. But of course there are many reasons why this student decided to attend college. Personally, I knew…

doing better in college. This article then goes on to state that gappers “value their education more; they are more persistent in their university studies and activities, and they become more organized as they progress through university life” (Taking a Gap Year…). These students not only had better grades, but also better skills that would help them even after college. This same article quotes David Curtis, a professor at Flinders University as saying, “‘the key indicator of gap year…
