Assaingly, as we encourage our young people to attend a higher education institution, we seem to forget that these schools cost more and more to attend. I am not only talking about the financial cost, but the time it takes to get there. Today, too many graduate with degrees they can never really use. The higher education institutions refuse to stay tuned in to the needs of the real world. I wrote about this earlier. There are however, ample jobs and money does not have to be the reason for not getting the tools for success. There are millions of $ out there available in scholarships which are never claimed. It might be time to build an app so these young people and their families could easier find them, apply and get the funds they so deserve.

In today's economic market every bit of education helps you stand out. Detroit is trying to give their high school graduates a step up. Going forward students who graduate from a Detroit High School and are residents will have a tuition-free path to an associate degree or technical certificate* at any one of five participating community colleges.
