When Is School Fees Considered "Too Much"? by dongeorgio: 10:44pm On Jun 01, 2016 |
How much school fees can be considered too much for you to pay for your ward/child?I had the opportunity to be at a venue for common entrance recently.The interesting thing is though the amount charged is in the region of half a million naira per term.The interesting part is that some parents think it is cheap and very affordable.So will you be willing to set a limit to what you are willing to pay as schools fees or is there no limit? |

Your question is straight forward but answering this is kindda complex if we put the present situation of a country into consideration. To some 500k for school fees in a term is just too much while to some others, 5k per term is unaffordable. We are in a messed up economy bro even public schools are not fee anymore. In ekiti state for example, you see patents owing school fees for 2terms because the economy in that state is dead already...even while the amount is below 15k they still owe and when their debts becomes unrecoverable (bad debts) they withdraw their child to a new school So looking at my evaluation I will say if a parent can't afford to pay his/her child's school fees with ease, it is too much 30 Likes |

Almost $2000 for highschool is too much for a highschool education, it's not like the "degree" is useful. Well it becomes too much if it's Fees in a year is more than 30% of your total income. For Universities, there's no limit...Get student loans you are confident of paying back in 10 years 8 Likes |

When is school fees regarded as too much? Firstly, there are levels to things so so long as you can pay for it, it's affordable. Otherwise, education is priceless really. There's always something more to offer. |

Hmm. This is a subjective question and depends on your spending power. The main thing is to have a minimum benchmark of quality education and continuously monitor the standard. |
