The electrician told you they started earning some money right out of high school by working as an apprentice.

An engineer, however, requires a four-year bachelor’s degree. Thinking about attending college, you checked out the website of a college nearby, and the tuition is around $12,000 a year.

If you decide that you would like to attend college, which of these would be the best choice for your next step?
Question 8 options:

Enroll in an electrical apprenticeship because you can't afford to pay full price for the degree.


Apply for a loan for $48,000 to cover the four-year degree.


Speak to the college and research scholarships and grants you might qualify for.


Continue working until you save enough money to pay for the entire cost of the four-year degree.

Speak to the college and research scholarships and grants you might qualify for.

Reason: before committing to debt or delaying education, explore financial aid (FAFSA), scholarships, grants, work‑study, payment plans, and cheaper options (community college, transfers). The college’s financial aid office can explain all available supports.
