Tuition Costs

As I was web searching earlier today, I found an article on money.cnn.com saying the average price of college spending annually has raised 16% from last year. The average price last year was at a high price of $24,164, which includes tuition, room and board, transportation, and all other college expenses. Everyone knows that college is expensive as is, but the fact that it is increasing is wild. Who would've thought a college education would get any more expensive when we are talking about tens of thousands of dollars a year? Its tough to expect to pay that off when the numbers get that high, but it is very necessary to have that college degree. In my case, pursuing an Accounting degree could take 5 years depending on how many credit hours per semester I take. I may have to take summer classes even if I don't have to retake any. Plus, I have to manage the money in my pockets while worrying about paying for college as a whole. College is tough so far, but I believe I can get through with a degree and a job.
