Next week's blog post(s) will be due by next Tuesday, the 12th. If you do not already write on your blog two or three times a week, depending on which class you are in, you can use this writing prompt for the week: What are you thirsting to learn and why?Whatever you are thirsting to learn DOES NOT HAVE TO BE ABOUT THIS CLASS. It can be about absolutely anything from skateboarding to horses to Monopoly to Zoology. You are to write a 3-paragraph descriptive essay on what it is you are dying to learn about maybe in college, in life, or in the final months of high school.
what im dying to learn is why college is extremely expensive. what does college have to offer that has to be 20,000 -40,000 each year? the only thing were getting is a degree but i dont understand why its soo expensive? there is a 50 dollar fee to send application. the books cost around 1,000 to 2,000 dollars it self.
then there is a fee to live on campus which is half of the tuition. some colleges that i researched about has $930 per classes you want to take. your pretty much trying to pay off the school loan your whole life.
many people dont even go to college because they cannot pay for it. some colleges dont even have finacial aid which puts students in a difficult position whether or not to go to college.
Yes, college is indeed expensive, but cheaper if you go to a state or city school if you want to. And you are right, it could take your whole life to pay off a student loan. And then don't forget grad school. Often a college degree is not enough and you have to get an advanced degree to get a good job.
