I need some opinions regarding how we as a nation can do a better job with the dilemma of supplying Student Aid to students seeking higher education. Who should get it? How is it funded? How is it distributed? Thank you for your thoughts!

Start with a cap on how much universities can charge and then set up an institution that can offer relatively interest free loans to any who need them for the purposes of Tuition fees and maybe some towards the cost of living. Fund through taxation. It is the duty of participants in society to help the next generation particularly those less fortunate than themselves that younger generation in university now will give the money back after graduation. I personally believe education should be free to all but that won’t happen in most countries…shame I wasn’t born in Scotland I suppose.
Citizens should be allowed to get government funded student aid.
Student aid should be given based on income/ lack of income.
Differences that would normally be met by loans .. should be eliminated.
Instead of giving loans to students who will more than likely not be able to pay for the loan until they are in middle age/ middle level employment and by this time the loan is worth more than their salary and current debts..Extra funds should be available through volunteering, work study opportunities, work through the college, internships, and work opportunities …philanthropic endeavors…etc.. delivered upon increments of work.
Its funded through tax and donations.
distributed by fasa…
the monies should also be available through schools that charge fair market value for their courses and not bloated premium value for prestige and no substance. There are way too many schools that are student recruitment mills and they do not try to retain the students beyond a few semesters.
I am currently battling a culture of professors that think culling students and not teaching them anything.. is normal and okay.
The problem is the students paid to learn and are not learning anything but how to be broken spirits, because the school is more interested in prestige and what students’ talents can do for their school and not what their schools can do to hone the talents students are investing in.
