Not Enough Aid For Those In Need
In my classmate's blog, she mentions the fact that tuitions for universities have been at an all time high in recent years. Sadly, it only keeps increasing as time goes by. Students are finding it even more difficult to find a way to pay for their education while some also have to pay for rent, bills, food, etc. Not everyone has the support of their parents to pay some of the costs and some don't even have anyone to look for to get help. Financial aid can only pay for a fraction of the total cost and young students who have recently graduated from high school only have a minimum job as a source of income. Yet, they are expected to fully pay the cost, so they can have a successful career after finishing their education. However, that's not how it works. Most students end up in debt after finishing college, as my colleague had said in her blog. How are we suppose to encourage our youth to succeed when we are unable to provide them enough financial need, especially to those who are not as privileged as others.As my classmate said, she offers the solution of increasing financial aid while also increasing the funding from the government. I agree that as it is now, Financial aid is not sufficient enough for many young students in our universities. By increasing it, we would be able to support many more students and even encourage more young adults to enroll into a university. Many people choose not to attend because of the cost and not having enough money, but by increasing the fund we'll have more intelligent students graduating from their desired college and as a result, our workforce will improve tremendously. The government should really focus on education if we really want to be a successful country and they can start by aiding the students in need.
