Abstract:

The astronomical cost of university tuition and fees, plus the loans often used to pay this debt, has left many legislators seeking resolutions for the short and long term negative impacts. Solutions included the “last dollar” grant for high school graduates students with a GPA of 3.5 or above and encouraging more community college attendance. Statistics indicating the enormity of this crisis and feasibility of a community college degree include graduates defaulting on loans and students who graduate from community colleges debt free.
