I've been reading a lot of articles lately about high school graduated attending college. Due to this economy, it has been rough on many high school graduates wanting to attend college. College tuition is skyrocketing, and the recent college graduates are struggling to get work. When I was attending college twelve years ago, it wasn't a struggle. I had scholarships, grants, and other financial aid to help me. However, I came from a poor family...and I can understand why I did received that aid. I am wondering about the kids who come from poor, working class, and middle class families who want to attend college or are attending college? Are you and your family struggling for you to attend college financially? Have you had to sacrifice going to a certain college or university and go to one in state or in your community so your family and afford it? And are you still struggling go to a state college or university?

It's so sad that there are high school graduates who are very eager to have a college degree but they lack the resources to attend and enroll to a class. While some students who have lots of money just waste their opportunity and who do not attend to their classes although they are enrolled. If they did just gave their money to those who are eager to learn.
