[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 221570, member: 84"] Wow. That's awful. :( Community colleges here are affordable for just about everyone. Even those with low income down into the poverty level can attend. There are grants and FASFA loans to cover the costs. Take me for example. husband and I are riding just below the poverty line for our size family. But I'm still able to attend community college and get a degree. I have a grant and 2 FASFA loans. One loan has no interest, the other does. (but that second one is much smaller) Nichole, who counts as her own household although she still lives at home because she has a child, is poverty level. Her income is zero. So she has 2 grants and FASFA and will have to pay very little back when she is finished with her degree. The cost of living on campus for a 4 year college is still high. That's why Nichole's boyfriend lives at home and drives the 1.5 hours there and back each day. But it depends on which college as to the price. I don't know much about 4 year colleges. [/QUOTE]
