AACC Fat Facts

It surprises me at how much college cost on the sheet. I already knew college was going to expensive, but actually seeing the numbers now that i am here, i wish i apllied to more scholarships in high school. Another surprising fact is how many full time students go to work. I go to work and i also take enough credit hours to be classified as a full time student. It is the worst thing anyone could ever do. The only day i get off every week is Saturday. After starting college i learned there are just not enough hours in the day. The absolute biggest shock on this fact sheet is that only 73% of students applied for any type of aid in 2016-2017. If the help is there, why not take it. Why is that number not 100? Are people that rich?
