How much is college in other places? It's free here in San Francisco. You don't pay anything. You can get an education at CCSF without a dime paid if you live here.
CCSF is a community college. Community colleges are great, but associate degrees by themselves don't do much for you. The issue here is public universities that offer 4-year and postgraduate programs.
Free in Germany. It used to cost 500 euros per semester. but you still get your bachelors and masters here for cheaper than a quarter at some schools. Our bachelors are 3 years masters are 2.
