The
cost of tuition can be daunting. It’s so intimidating that many academically
gifted students fail to apply. College is affordable if you follow these
creative steps towards securing your degree. If you’re not at the top of your
class or are not a gift athlete, funding for college is still available. Don’t make the mistake of selecting an
expensive private university where your degree will be saddled with mountains
of debt.
One
of the most economical options is to enroll in a local community college for
the first two years of a four year degree. The tuition is a fraction of the
cost of a state university and, provided strong grades are attained, these
credits will generally transfer to a four year university.
