WHY COLLEGE EDUCATION SHOULD BE FREE

WHY COLLEGE EDUCATION SHOULD BE FREE

Introduction

College education is one of the vital necessities in all countries and societies nowadays. States compete struggling to provide quality education to their students. The major problem is financing the training by the students as many of them are unlucky to get the best education due to financial issues to enable them to go to school, especially colleges and other intuitions of higher learning. Therefore in my view, the government should provide free training in colleges to give a chance to all students to pursue higher education.

College education should be free as the government should budget for education to be free and provide more funds to abolish fees in colleges. Pingel et al., (2016), this will encourage many students to pursue their dreams. The majority of people who will have the pass and due to challenges in fees will get an opportunity to go to colleges. Many parents have the wish of sending their children to higher institutions of learning, but they do not have enough money to support education in terms of paying school fees, therefore, majority of children to not get that opportunity to proceed to college which leads to their dreams remaining just a wish. Therefore college studies should be free in order to give all children an opportunity to get the education and to ensure college fee is no longer a burden, and all children should be enrolled in colleges freely.

The free college education will benefit the entire nation, not an individual who will have an advantage. On this program of allowing free college education, all students will have a chance to contribute their talents, explore new ideas, and chose the life they did not have incases they didn’t could have gotten. This will lead to people being a happy and prosperous nation. Better-educated nations will lead to good and smarter decision-making at all stages of society; this will eventually lead to faster progress in solving the challenging and difficult decisions that face the nation. A free college education will enable students to focus more on their studies instead of been stressed about their future and worrying about how they can look for funds for education. A free college education will enable many students to graduate on time and get a job in their societies that will help in reduction in poverty and illiteracy levels in our societies (Goldrick and Kelly 2016)

According to Chingos (2016), a free college education will increase work specialization as students will get the opportunity to pursue their dream courses for a future career. There is a larger need that graduates are required for skilled personnel who have the capability to contribute to the evolving work market globally. Higher education contributes to a more educated population and a productive workforce. Nations with higher levels of college and university education have higher levels of specialization, productivity, and higher levels of innovation. The government should, therefore, ensure they are providing a free college education to increase the rates of specialization in the job market by students going to colleges and universities. A free college education will ensure that education is merit, so the government should provide fee College to encourage more people to study.

There should be free college education as by doing so the government will be investing in a worthy full resource as it will on future have a stable nation and developed as education will lead to invention of ideas and introduction of new technologies as many graduates will apply the knowledge learned in school to come up with new technologies to boost the economy of the country. Money put in education would have a lot of positive and decisive impacts that lead to the country being better and much developed. A free college education will help students concentrate on education as most of them get involved in a part-time job at the time they should be in school due to the fact that they work to look for money for funds to help them pay school fees. The kind of job they get involved consumes most of their school time; hence, free education is the best option to ensure they remain in school and concentrate on their studies( Freuler, 2016).

To conclude, students should be financed by the government to ensure all students go to colleges in order to have a developed nation.
