19. I call BS...
I have a kid in college. We live in Delaware...he goes to University of Delaware. He works an internship at a bank making $10 an hour..he usually works 25 hours a week. There's no way he could pay tuition, rent, food/elec/phone/gas etc. and books. That's a bunch of crap. He lives at home and pays for the gas he uses...he doesn't have his own car he uses mine, he pays $30/month for his cell phones bill. He'll probably be lucky and get a full time gig at the bank when he graduates. But he's still saving money in case it doesn't work out.

Last year he got a few grants which helped...this year they were all cut.
