			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-size: medium;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Raleway;" class="mycode_font">The prospect of attending college can be both daunting and exciting, especially given the current price of tuition. Tuition costs often exceed &#36;38,000 for a four-year degree for students attending a college in the U.S, based on <span style="font-size: medium;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Raleway;" class="mycode_font"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">The College Board</span></span></span>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Raleway;" class="mycode_font">And on average, tuition is more than double that amount for pupils attending a school from their home state.

<span style="font-size: medium;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Raleway;" class="mycode_font">Admission is extremely competitive, and several schools need admitted students to maintain a demanding <span style="font-size: medium;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Raleway;" class="mycode_font"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">work-study program</span></span></span> while earning their degree, in addition to meet strict service commitments following graduation.</span></span><br />
