College degree without debt 2

In my last post, I promised that I will write about various ways people can obtain college degree without incuring debt. The first of these means is obtaining college degree by first going to a community college. Community college is a two-year college where students can get equivalent of two years of a four-year college. It is called community colleges in the USA, but other countries have equivalent institution. This is a very cheap way of obtaining a college degree. In the USA, majority of the community colleges belong to the state governments. In this way, they are subsidized by the government and students can also attend them from home. There are more than 2,000 community colleges distributed in every state and locality in the USA. Although not all community college credits are transferable to four year colleges, interested students should verify this option before enrolling.

     The main advantage of the community college is the cost which, in some cases, represent about 30% of the cost of a four-year state college. In order to prevent students and their parents from getting into debt, I wrote a book listing the 50 cheapest American Colleges and Universities. The book is written in both English and in Portuguese languages. The books are available from:

The book provides the cost of each college and university, the courses available, contact address, etc. 

     By going to the community college, a student will save enough money to pay higher tuition even when he transfers to a four-year college. The other option can be to work after graduation from community college, save some money before going back to complete the four-year course. Using this method, one may spend more than 4 years, but will definitely not have the student debt which is a nightmare for many people. Consider this!
