The economic burden on student is a pressing issue that demands collective action from government and institutions. it is unacceptable that student are forced to choose between financial stability and academic pressure.The monetary burden on students is a ticking time bomb, threatening to ruin their academic dreams and long – term well-being.The exorbitant cost of education has turned a fundamental right into what only the privilege can afford.
Student’s are forced to juggle part-time jobs,loans and financialstress,all while trying to maintain a good GPA.The consequences tothese are: anxiety,a sense of hopelessness and depression. Thepressure to earn a high salary after graduating can cause a burn outand misguided career choice.It’s time for a change.
I observed that,universities and government should make a financialsupport,affordable tuition,and reourses for mental health .Firstly,governments should prioritize affordable education by subsidizingtuition fees, increasing funding for public universities, andimplementing income-based repayment plans for student loans.
Institutions, on the other hand, must expand financial aid programs, offer scholarships, and provide resources for financial literacy and counseling.
