With the economy as it is and tuition continuing to rise, a higher education is getting harder to obtain without going into debt. Many middle class families are struggling just to put food on the table and hold onto their homes. A higher degree is the furthest thing from their mind, yet now is when its needed the most! Gone are the days when you could get a decent job with just a High School diploma, in fact a Bachelor’s degree is no longer sufficient for many careers.

Looks like a great resource. My son only has *gasp* 4 years to go. So we’ll soon be in planning mode.
