An American student can not attend school until they are 24 years of age due to the fact that they can not get student loans until that age. Most students who are of a lower or medium income background are expected to get their parents to pay their way thru college when the parents more then likely can not afford it. I have run into this problem with my own 3 children so I know that it is a fact. Our country does not wish for our America born children to get higher educations and it simply burns my a-s-s that they, my children, are being treated in this way. They have been shut out of the educational system!
