About 'lincoln college tuition'|Free College Tuition Through COSI!








Once               again,               student               debt               managed               to               climb               its               way               up               to               be               among               the               top               of               the               headlines.

President               Obama               proposed               to               reform               student               loan               interest               rate               structure               to               be               based               on               market               forces               rather               than               bureaucratic               rules.

The               situation               with               student               loans               have               become               so               desperate               that               lawsuits               are               being               filed               by               students               against               their               alma               mater.

An               oversized               student               loan               can               be               a               perpetual               anchor               to               weigh               down               the               American               Dream.

Before               I               go               on,               let's               get               one               thing               out               of               the               way.

Yes,               not               all               diplomas               hold               the               same               value.

For               example,               a               degree               from               Harvard               University               clearly               carries               with               it               the               prestige               and               recognition               that               does               not               come               with               "Podunk               State               College".

The               moral               of               this               story               is               not               so               much               how               diplomas               from               all               colleges               are               interchangeable               or               perfectly               substitutable.

However,               with               prudent               decisions,               one               may               be               able               to               obtain               a               quality               education               toward               a               fulfilling               career               whilst               avoiding               the               worst               case               scenario               for               college               students:               spending               decades               to               pay               down               a               debt               that               cannot               be               shed               through               bankruptcy.
               In               2001,               I               was               facing               a               problem               that               few               American               high               school               students               faced.

I               came               from               an               (legal)               immigrant               family.

Due               to               various               circumstances,               we               were               not               able               to               amass               any               notable               degree               of               wealth.

Needless               to               say,               I               did               not               have               a               college               fund.

Even               worse,               in-state               tuition               was               not               an               option               for               me               because               of               my               status               as               a               F-1               international               student.

Although               at               the               time               I               was               living               in               Texas,               where               top               10%               of               all               high               school               students               are               guaranteed               entry               into               any               public               institution,               my               grades               were               pulled               down               by               my               early               years               in               high               school               due               to               language               deficiencies.

My               choices               were               limited:               pay               out-of-state               tuition               in               Texas               or               anywhere               else.
               Although               tuition               inflation               had               only               recently               surface               as               a               hot               issue               in               the               media,               its               upward               trajectory               was               already               well               in               place               by               the               early               2000's.

In               short,               a               F-1               student               with               pretty               good               (though               far               from               excellent)               grades               is               not               exactly               hot               commodity.

My               choices               essentially               came               down               to               a               private               university               in               the               Midwest               that               is               nationally               ranked               among               top               20               undergraduate               programs               in               the               country,               or               a               little-known               liberal               arts               college               in               the               South               but               has               an               excellent               regional               academic               reputation.

My               parents               urged               me               to               enroll               into               the               private               university,               which               offered               me               a               substantial               amount               of               scholarship               based               on               a               combination               of               merit               and               need               but               still               required               annual               out-of-pocket               expenses               of               at               least               $16,000.

However,               the               liberal               arts               college               chose               to               take               a               chance               on               me               and               offered               me               a               full               ride,               including               room               and               board.

It               was               funded               by               a               private               philanthropist               who               lived               her               entire               life               within               her               means               and               simply               saved,               saved,               and               saved               some               more.
               Thus,               the               opportunity               for               me               to               make               the               best               financial               decision               of               my               life               presented               itself.

Instead               of               taking               out               a               six-figure               student               loan               and               pursue               my               education               with               a               top-ranked               private               university,               I               chose               the               liberal               arts               college.
               My               decision               process               went               something               like               this:
               1.

What               is               the               main               reason               for               choosing               the               private               university?

The               answers               were               clear:               prestige;               recognition;               potentially               superior               education               experience.
               2.

What               is               the               main               drawback               for               choosing               the               private               university?

The               answer               was               just               as               clear:               being               knee-deep               in               debt               without               quality               employment               prospects               as               a               F-1               student               (contributing               causes               are               for               a               separate               story).
               There               is               one               underlying               common               denominator:               information.

By               now,               the               accreditation               process               for               higher               education               helps               to               standardize               much               of               the               content               among               schools.

In               other               words,               the               information               and               knowledge               being               taught               at               various               universities               are               largely               the               same.

Key               differences               reside               in               method               of               delivery.

Yet               it               is               well               known               that               larger               schools               -               both               public               and               private,               particularly               those               classified               as               "R-1"               (major               research               institutions)               tend               to               use               Teaching               Assistants.

Thus               the               quality               of               education               likely               differs               little               among               schools               with               the               same               accreditation.

Any               positive               or               negative               experiences               in               institutions               of               the               same               accreditation               are               likely               idiosyncratic               to               individual               faculty               members               rather               than               systemic               to               the               entire               institution.
               However,               I               will               concede               one               point.

Even               identical               information               cannot               account               for               external               relations.

Two               schools,               both               with               the               same               curriculum               and               accreditation,               are               also               likely               to               have               different               networking               opportunities.

The               difference               is               likely               much               greater               between               schools               from               obviously               different               "tiers".

This               is               where               the               student               should               do               his/her               homework               on               the               following:
               1.

Which               school               offers               the               most               robust               program               that               fits               my               main               interest?


               2.

Which               school               has               a               more               robust               career               development               and               placement               program?


               3.

Do               the               two               items               above               justify               the               premium               (if               any)               in               total               expenses?
               Although               the               choices               presented               to               me               were               rather               extreme,               many               students               today               likely               face               choosing               among               multiple               schools               from               the               same               tier.

Equally               as               likely               is               that               the               student               has               little               to               no               clue               as               to               what               career               field               to               choose.

Under               such               circumstances,               my               advice               is               simple:               choose               the               least               expensive               option               as               long               as               the               accreditation               standard               is               identical.

Because               once               a               student               loan               is               taken               out,               there               is               no               other               option               besides               paying               it               back.

On               the               other               hand,               information               acquisition               and               application               are               both               efforts               of               the               student.
               As               Abraham               Lincoln               said:               "Always               bear               in               mind               that               your               own               resolution               to               succeed               is               more               important               than               any               other               one               thing."
               One               does               not               need               an               expensive               education               in               order               to               obtain               career               success               and               financial               independence.

With               caveats,               of               course.
