6. WHEN OUR KIDS GO TO
COLLEGE…
If you have a child when you turn 28, in what
year will he or she most likely first attend college?
1994+28=2022( the child would be born)
+18 ( after attending 12 yrs of school)
= 2040
My child will go to college in the year 2040/2041
Estimated tuition= 15,000-20,000 dollars

7. ARTICLE
As we all know, college costs are rising
every year. I feel like the rising costs of
education after high school will push
many students away from college.
Many students need
scholarships, loans, and financial aid to
cover the costs. I have learned that
public schooling is cheaper then
private. Students would be getting a
better value if they attended public
schools due to the crazy prices of
private school. I support public
schooling because I want to be paying
back as little money as I can when I am
out of college, rather than hundreds of
dollars a month.
