VIDEO:  Paying for College Bus Tour
 
 
I know that my parents began saving for my college tuition when I was very young. I was fortunate to have a family that helped me pay for my college education. Many young people think that if their family does not have money then they have no chance of going to college. Well Arnold Hernandez is traveling to 60 cities around the country visiting low income communities teaching students and their parents that there are many ways to get money for college.
