Hundreds of American students are looking for sponsors to pay for university tuition.

For 60% of American university students, the average debt upon graduation is $27,3 thousand. But not for those who have found wealthy sponsors who are willing to cover the costs of education. There are even special Internet resources for searching for generous daddies, and they tell you which universities have the most supported students.

A special dating site for finding people willing to pay for someone else’s education provided statistics for 2014 a year.

A record number of students provided for in this way was at the University of Texas: 425 people. In second place is Arizona State University with 403, and New York University with 398.

In total, Seekingarrangement.com registered 1,4 million students who were looking for sponsors to pay for expensive tuition. Prices for university studies this year rose by 2,9%, while the CPI rose only by 2%.

The director of a dating site says that the numbers demonstrate a problem that the government ignores, writes AmericaRu.com
