How many of you have noticed how difficult it is getting for all of us college students and parents to pay for college tuition? I remember how much tuition was bak in 2005 when I first began to go to college. It was about 270 per credit at a public university and now it is $380 at most universities. How many of you have had problems paying for tuition with all the economic problems in the world today? I personally have had a lot of difficulties paying for myu tuition for the past two semesters and if it keeps going up, I will have to take off a semester to be able to pay for the next semester.

Well, my situation could be even worse. My college has just raised the tuitition fee from 6000 euro per year to 13000 euro per year, more than doubled!This is the dealing of a private institute with economic downturn I guess, and I suddenly find that I really need a scholarship to make up my expenses, or find an internship somewhere.

College has always been outrageous. I remember when I was in high school, all of the sudden at the last minute I was offered a partial scholarship for one of the smaller colleges nearby. My mother told me that it costs too much and that we could not afford for me to go to college.
We lived in a very small town, and I had no way of getting a car to go to the next city or so to get a job. I ended up going to vocational school, and doing ok.
