1. COLLEGE COST COMPARISON By: Ruth Nguyen

2. WHY COLLEGE? I see elementary school, middle school, and high school are almost a video game, you learn and collect knowledge like collecting coins/boosts in a video game and go to the next level when you learn and do the things needed for that level, and college is the final level of the “game” until you reach the prize which in the real world is the knowledge you needed to be successful. In this power point, we will view a variety of colleges from private, to in state, to out of state, and finally to international colleges. We will also view the costs for each college.
