　　High inflation (通货膨胀) has knocked out the traditional ways of saving money for college—the 5.5 percent savings accounts (银行账户) and 6.5 percent U. S. savings bonds. (债券) College costs have risen an average of 9.5 percent a year since 1970, according to the college scholarship service. It now costs 3,248 dollars a year to send a child to a four-year public university, counting tuition (学费), room, board, fees, books, transportation and personal expenses and 5,526 for a private college. By 1990, these figures could double.

　　When savings fall short, as they usually do, almost all families today should make a strong bid for college aid. Some of the better-endowed (捐赠) private colleges offer grants to families with incomes of $ 30,000 or more if they can show financial need. Among the upper-income families that might qualify for help are those with several children; with one child already in college or pre school; with usually large medical expenses or with alimony (赡养费) and child-support obligations (义务). A $ 30,000—income family where both parents work will get more consideration than a family where just one person produces that income.

　　Colleges vary (变化) enormously in the amount of aid they give to upper-middle-income families, and many applicants (申请) will be disappointed. But you should at least apply. Fill in the financial aid form available at the high-school guidance office, which covers your income, assets[(通常用复数)财产)] and expenses; a computer analysis of how much you should be able to contribute toward college will be sent to whichever colleges you specify.

　　If a parent is dead, retired or disabled, and was covered by Social Security, his or her unmarried child aged 18 through 21, who is a full-time student, is eligible (合格的) for monthly Social Security benefits. These are granted even if the student is being supported by the other parent.
