They are going up this coming year on how much u can get on pell.. If u are low income, u can get grants and LOANS..though not nearly enough.. I do think that there should be more available to students.. By the time I graduate, I will be about $60,000 in debt with loans.. A new bill is in Congress allowing for cheaper interest on student loans.. However, it's still not enough.. I get upset because international students and illegals can go to college tuition free and housing free while they get work study and pells.. I can NEVER get work study because there are not enough positions..(though I can't scream discrimination..I am a white female).. I do think there should be incentives or at least more aid if u are on welfare, etc.. If I could finish school, I would not need food stamps, govt. housing, etc but I can't afford to finish school..As far as the govt paying.. we should be glad for the little aid we get..If it were up to some people..we would not get a dime.. I think the govt needs to actually take a look around and C what is really happening to America...but colleges are a money making business and will ALWAYS cost more than what aid we get.. They don't care if we get an education as long as they get money.
