Germany provides excellent educational opportunities in many fields for American citizens at close to zero out of pocket expense for the student. Google "Germany Erasmus".
- pilsetnieks 9y agoErasmus is a EU programme for student exchange between cooperating universities for up to a year, it's not relevant in this case. However, they should look at German universities in general because they are practically free for anyone.
- vadym909 9y agoSurprised why more Americans don't explore colleges in low tuition countries.
- utternerd 9y ago"Free" meaning coercion via the state to fund other people's pursuits. Perhaps we should look at why costs are rising? People need to seriously evaluate if it's really needed for them. I reject your notion that everyone, or even most people need a college degree. (I didn't, and I live quite comfortably thanks to tech with a 6 figure salary) Part of the problem is exactly that we're subsidizing many people, forcing more scarcity and leading to higher prices. Using force to make someone else pay for my stuff isn't something I want to condone.
- jjawssd 9y agoGermans gladly accept the state taking half of their paycheck for pursuits such as this.
- sjg007 9y agoTrue... If you are a qualified American applicant you should definitely consider getting your degree in Europe/England. It's a different system, perspective but worthwhile in the end. Certainly cheaper.
- dx034 9y agoEngland isn't much cheaper. If you're not from UK or EU you'll pay >$20k per year. Not as much as in the US but certainly not free.
