Show summary

The cost of a semester's tuition at a certain university is based on the number of courses in which a student enrolls that semester. ████████ ███ ████ ███ ██████ ██ ████ ██████████ ███ ███ █████ ██ ████ ██████ ████ ██ ███ ████████ ███ █████ ██████ ███ ███████ ████ ████ █████ ████████ ███ █████ ████ ███ ██ ██████ ██████ ███

"Surprising" Phenomenon

Why do many students who could afford tuition when they first enrolled now claim that they can’t afford tuition anymore, even though the cost of tuition is based on the number of courses enrolled in and the cost per course hasn’t increased in the last four years?
