[quote=Anonymous]With college getting more and more expensive, the number of parents who can afford to send their children to college is shrinking. There are quite a number of kids whose parents make enough to diminish the loans/grants, but the parents don't make enough to fully fund the tuition. I know a number of folks who graduated from high school and immediately went to work, lived at home and worked to put money away for college. Some went to college part-time and worked part-time. Others, took 2 years off, put away money and then went to an AA college, got an AA degree, then worked for 2 more years, then went back to college and finished their BA/BS. I think the numbers are going up from those that have to pay all or part of their way through college and hence do not go full-time straight through for 4-5 years.[/quote]
