 In the 1980s, the average cost of public college was about $2,500 a year, and that's in today's dollars. People could literally pay for tuition with a summer job at the ice cream shop. For you, those same schools cost almost $10,000 a year. And while college is more expensive than ever, it's also more important than ever, because today, getting ahead in the world without higher education is not easy. So you wanna go to college, but you also have to find a way to overcome a system that isn't working. And there is a path to success. Scholarships. Only problem is your passions are unique, and unless you're a straight-A student or an all-star athlete, you might have a hard time finding one, because America has a scholarship problem. Do you remember the first time someone asked you what you wanted to be when you grew up? You said you wanted to be a dancer, an entrepreneur, a chef who saves the environment, a lawyer who gives hope to the voiceless. You wanted the flexibility to forge your own path. You wanted to change the world. And you didn't know exactly how you'd do it, but all along, there was one thing that you knew you'd need to make those dreams come true. Education. Maybe four-year college, maybe two-year, maybe trade school. It didn't really matter. As long as the path you were on was yours, there's just one small problem, money. But finally, there's a scholarship for you and other passionate individuals who wanna leave the world better than they found it. Like Cori, who wants to turn her love for dance into a lifetime career. While I'm dancing, it's the most myself I ever feel. Or Jonathan, who wants to create films so that he can tell stories about those who too often go unseen. Enter the Taco Bell Foundation's Live Moss Scholarship.
