Introduction:

High school is the time when the motivation and ambition of the children is high. All the student plan their college time with full motivation and zeal. One of the thing which is the main obstacle in the lives of the high school students is the increased college expenses. In the presence of increased college expenses students are more worried about managing their college without having the risk of the increased debt on their parents or higher student loan. Keeping in view the high number of students dropping from the college due to the absence of college expenses, many of the institutions and the state as a whole is offering college funds either in the form of saving or in the form of a loan which needs to be repaid once the student has graduated since in this way the cycle of helping one another will continue.

College expenses are increasing keeping in view the merits given to all the students in the form of academics and other benefits being given to the students. There are many families who are leading a difficult life as either there are sole earners or the parents are already managing the expenses of their middle schooling children which makes it hard for them to manage their college going children expenses. The inability to give the college fee enhanced the rate of students dropping out of college. In Figure 1, it has been shown that during the time period of 2000 to 2014 there was an increase in the college student dropping out of the college due to their inability to pay for the college dues. There are many children especially in the region of the United States who are managing their expenses at their own once they enter the phase of college life. Although the number of students dropping have decreased in the year 2014, but for the future of the students and the overall progress of the country everyone in the country should have high education along with some technical knowledge of the subjects they are studying.

Overview:

Keeping in view all the reasons behind insufficient funding for college, college funding programs are beings designed. In this paper, a college funding program will be discussed which will focus on the students who give up on college as they are unable to pay the dues. For this task, I will probably center on understudies who are debilitated by school costs, battling with subsidizing, or ignorant of school financing programs. I plan on putting these understudies specifically in contact with current students/graduated class, who are willing to reveal some insight into monetarily enduring school. There are dependably assets online to attempt and guide individuals and give tips and data, anyway what better approach to truly get the jist of things that to hear it straightforwardly from somebody who has been in your shoes. This is to advance research and give consolation to the individuals who can't finance their school vocations as effortlessly as others. My long haul objective is to limit the measure of understudies who stop their examinations or decide not to promote their training after secondary school, due to money related reasons. As the figure 2 demonstrates that almost 36% of the students are studying on loans while 7 out of 10 students in the college feel stressed about managing their college expenses. 19% of those who are relying on their family are undergoing through higher tension. Hence the issue of funding needs to be solved so that the college students do not adopt mental illness like depression and ailment of anxiety in the long run.

Goals of this project:

The primary and long term goal of this project is to find ways to support the students who are dropping their college and getting discouraged because of financial issues. My long-term goal is to minimize the amount of students who discontinue their studies or choose not to further their education after high school, due to financial reasons. However as far as the short term goal is concerned I will focusing on single state at a time and increase college funding by gaining sponsors for all the brilliant children and other methods for the average of below average children so that no one mentions that they were not given a chance to study in college. Other than this it will be focused that the families/ students in need of the assistance get connected with the right people and funding process that can cater their problems.

Plan:

In this plan sequential steps will be followed to achieve the major goal of the process.

Volunteer drive:

Put together a gathering of volunteers willing to be a piece of a board for undergrad and approaching understudies and additionally their families. Volunteers must be present school seniors or graduates. I will advance this venture through flyers and internet based life with the end goal to discover volunteers this will include:

· Print media:

Printing out flyers and posting them all through Campus, and Public spots, for example, (shopping centers, stores, eateries, libraries, and so forth.) → these will give forthcoming volunteers my contact data and a little understanding of the program

· Social Media:

Promotion through online life will likewise be fundamental; so I will post data on facebook and twitter, and additionally making an instagram page explicitly for my occasion → and again each will have my contact data and understanding on the expected program

Discussion on the program:

Once I get a gathering of volunteers willing to partake, I will hold free normal spaces, (for example, library meeting rooms, gathering room on grounds, and so on.) for the occasion/s Libraries have free regions accessible for gatherings/bunch discourse occasions that are accessible to general society as long as you save a room.

Major places of meeting:

· Many Coffee shops/neighborhood settings have free room that they permit to be held for gatherings and such

· Classrooms on grounds are a possibility for projects and occasions, for nothing, as long as you hold them

· Promote the board occasion through similar means recorded in stage one, this time giving data and area of the occasion

Sessions for the potential participants and their parents for assistance:

There will be two unique sessions accessible that you could go to → this is trying to be adaptable and enable potential participants choices to visit

Supporting material:

Each occasion will have paper parcels for the participants posting distinctive assets they can use, counselors and individuals they can contact to talk and look for direction, and sites that give all the more subsidizing data (grants, stipends, and so on.). They will likewise feature programs inside all colleges that limit your costs, for example, Resident Assistant projects that give free lodging, numerous games programs that give monetary help (i.e. football, ball, baseball, and so forth.). What's more, they will likewise feature programs similarly as EOF, Work Study, and different projects expected to help in understudies accounts → around 40 parcels for every session Each program will have light refreshments and snacks for the participants (water bottles, espresso, chips, and bagels)

Expected Outcome of the program:

Once the sessions are completed, it is expected that there will be more and more people having awareness of the funding programs.

Cost Analysis and fund raising:

In this section cost analysis will be done along with the ways the funds can be raised for the deserving people.

Impact on the Rutgers Community

In this section I will explore why and how this plan will affect the Rutgers community. I will include why this program is necessary in Rutgers and other universities, and how it differs from programs already available to undergrads here.
