Should college be at no expense?

I think that college should be free, or any sort of higher education for that matter, but there should be limitations on who that college allows. If college were to be free to anyone, there would be a major spike in the number of college students that would attend.

The opportunity for all high school students to be able to go to college would be an immense one, but there still should be certain standards to the college that are set. For example, if the student is attending a certain college, he or she should have maintained a certain GPA and depending on their transcript, determines whether or not they are able to attend the college. I think it would be a great idea for college to be free, for more students may try harder in school and be optimistic to the idea of going to college, rather than dreading the thought of money and knowing they can’t afford the school itself.
