I agree-- knowledge is free. It is so unfortunate that people need a fancy (expensive) degree in order for that knowledge to be utilized into society. More and more people are graduating college with all this knowledge, and all this debt as well.
There must be a better way.
Aside from grants and scholarships, there’s not much anyone can do to jump immediately into college. One of the bets ways I have found to attend is to work your way through. I spent several years at a junior college before transferring and saved thousands by taking courses there. The part that kills me is that I was paying thousands less for the same classes that I would of have to take anyway.
