Ascending tuition fees–problem from low/middle income group

College Board has published its yearly report on the cost of financial aid for students. The problem of tuition fee hike has come under spot light again. It's really troublesome for students from low and medium income group to keep pace with the rising tuition fees.

But the only ray of hope is that the increment is showing downward graph this year. The reason behind is, as experts has said, students are paying their college fees timely.

The College Board Report shows that-

• Average tuition fees increased by 7.1% at 4 year Public Colleges, 5.4% at 2 year Public Colleges and 5.9% at 4 year Private Colleges.
  
  
• Student aid for graduate and undergraduate students has increased by 8%.

However; the Higher Education Department is not willing to consider it as a radical change.

But it's the responsibility of Higher Education Department to work with Students, Parents and States for future plans and Federal Government is supposed to keep the colleges affordable. Then the process would be really helpful.
