College Tuition: Four Decades of Financial Deception

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

College Tuition erases the notion that colleges are automatically trusted places of reverence. When it comes to finances, colleges' lust for money and self-interest knows no bounds. The higher education system is broken and its future depends on developing a more productive mode of operation. This book is well documented with striking, clear, easy to understand data and illustrations. The writers unveil the issues most directly related to the unnecessary rise in costs, and will help college-bound students identify cost effective schools and use techniques to secure the most beneficial financial aid deals. It will better prepare the general public and spur policymakers, board members, presidents, donors and employees at every college and university to speak more forcefully on the subject of institutional finances. College costs continue to rise at a level twice the CPI while today's high unemployment is making jobs for graduates hard to come by. Add to these problems changing in financial aid and declining family income and you have the perfect storm for controversy. Students and parents across the country are seeking straightforward answers about why college costs have spiralled out of control and what they can do on a practical level to minimise their expenses.
