MIAMI, June 27, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The cost of attendance in most colleges and universities has been increasing for the last few years that National Debt Relief looks at the pros and cons if college was given for free. The article titled "Are We Headed Towards Free College Tuition?" released June 17, 2019, takes a look at both sides if a college education is given at no cost.

The article starts off by pointing out that college tuition, as well as other expenses such as room and board, have gone up in the past years. To further compound the problem, the minimum wage has been slow to pick up making it more challenging for students to pay for higher education. This is why the call for free education is getting louder.

The article shares that there are a lot of benefits if ever college education were indeed given free to students. For one, it can be a good move for the economy. If college education is given for free, graduates would have the opportunity to start spending on housing and other areas of their life which will benefit the economy

The article also explains that having free college education levels out the playing fields for students especially for those coming from low-income families. Students coming from this sector can afford what is now a very expensive education. It also becomes a lot more expensive once students decide to take post-graduate studies.

The article also looks at the other side of things and shares some of the disadvantages of offering up college education at no cost. It points out how it can become too expensive for the government to take up which could lead to higher taxes down the road. If college becomes free of charge, it could also result in longer waiting times for students to get into their chosen universities.
