59. Honestly,

There are years with more scholarships than students applying.
If they take 12 hrs a semester and are low income they can qualify for Pell Grants. There are students starting this year who just graduated from high school and have an associate at no cost.

It's all about how determined the student is.

And for those who choose not to take all those hours in high school my state has the A+ program. You must enroll in the program in high school,complete 40 hours of volunteer work and maintain a 2.5 GPA. With that you have guaranteed tuition,fees and books at any community college in the state. Enrollment is free and the community service is made so that anyone can get it, even if transportation is an issue or time. Some of it is done on grounds at the high school.
