Let's face it - getting a college education is expensive for many people. While it would be nice if everyone could hit the lottery and pay for it easily, that's not how the world works.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics, the average annual cost of tuition, room and board for a college student is $17,633. If you are a full-time college student, you probably don't earn that much in an entire year. You probably have several other expenses to cover, as well, which may make it tough to keep yourself in school.
