    WHY UNIVERSITIES SHOULD BE FREE

    In recent years, the number of people who have been attending university greatly increased, consequently,
    arguments have continued as to whether students should pay for this prerogative or not. With no doubts, everything has its
    two sides and the problem of whether the university fees should be paid by taxpayers or not is not an exception. Still,
    there are people who believe that authorities should take the responsibility for funding the university fees. However,
    others disagree and opine that it is solely the responsibility of students to pay for their higher education that is in a direct
    connection to their prospering future career and life in general. In this way, it is important to review both sides of this
    controversial question. So, this essay will focus on evaluating arguments for and against free education in university. It is
    essential to assess arguments in favor of making university education free for all interested.

    College education has become a requirement in today’s society. And with a free college education, students would
    have time to educate themselves. The article entitled “should be free” states that “free college tuition should be given to
    students because it will assist students to concentrate on their studies” (Dynarski). They wouldn’t have to worry about
    their financial situation or other issues regarding their personal education. College education should be free because it
    decreases the student debt, allows more students to attend college and it will increase the educated population in the
    society.

    College education should be free for every student to follow and achieve their career passion. With a free college
    education, it would decrease the gap between rich and poor student. As poorer students would have equal and more
    opportunities to learn. Many states have developed free tuition programs for families with financial problems. According
    to the article entitled, “should college be free” exclaimed that, “free college education helps more members of racial and
    ethnic minorities to attend” (Dynarski). It helps them choose the major they want to learn and achieve their college
    education free of charge. There are a lot of jobs requiring a college degree and it made harder for those without higher
    education. “The economy also benefits from free education because It increases the pool of highly educated laborers”
    (Dynarski). It would expand higher educational benefits such as jobs and higher pay for the workers. Making college
    education free reduces the amount of student debt being carried over time. Making college education free would allow a
    lot of students to focus on their education and their careers. It could also cost less on the current spending and could save
    millions in loan debt and grants. According to the article, “Make Public College Tuition-Free” (MPCTF), states that,
    “making college tuition-free would cost less than what we already spend on the patchwork of financial aid programs we
    currently support” (Bryant). Free college education might give a lot of people the chance to learn and give equal
    opportunities to students who can’t afford a college education. Many institutions are offering some form of free tuition
    and they trying to bring in more talented students with low income.
