Don't go to college in the US. Go to college in other countries which are cheaper - Canada, certain European countries, Asia. The money goes a long way, and you get a multitude of rich and diverse cultural experiences. This might not work for everyone, but if the individual is independent, mature and extroverted, might be a great choice.

>>Go to college in other countries which are cheaper - Canada Canadian universities are still eye-wateringly expensive if you're an international (i.e. non-Canadian) student according to tuition fee schedules from University of Toronto¹, McGill², Queens³, University of British Columbia⁴ and Western University⁵. ¹ https://planningandbudget.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Tuition-Fee-Schedules-2021-22-Final-1.pdf https://planningandbudget.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/202... ² https://www.mcgill.ca/undergraduate-admissions/finances/cost-guide https://www.mcgill.ca/undergraduate-admissions/finances/cost... ³ https://www.queensu.ca/registrar/sites/webpublish.queensu.ca.uregwww/files/files/Tuition_2021_UG_Summer.pdf https://www.queensu.ca/registrar/sites/webpublish.queensu.ca... ⁴ https://students.ubc.ca/enrolment/finances/tuition-fees/undergraduate-tuition-fees https://students.ubc.ca/enrolment/finances/tuition-fees/unde... ⁵ https://www.registrar.uwo.ca/student_finances/fees_refunds/pdfsfeeschedule/Fall%20Winter%202021-2022%20UGRD%20fee%20schedule%20INTL.pdf https://www.registrar.uwo.ca/student_finances/fees_refunds/p...

  Francophone universities are significantly cheaper, but you have to speak French. As a Montrealer the thought of paying 53 000$ to study a year at McGill is insane to me. Especially since international students have to study one more year than those from Quebec! McGill being more expensive than other universities is a large part of why I chose not to study there, and that was only around 10 000$ extra over my whole degree.

It's not easy to get in to these places if you are from the US. Less than the top 10% of students would qualify with their diploma.
