Kanye West Rants on Twitter about Overpriced College Textbooks

​Its no surprise to anyone just how much of a financial burden college is to students and their families. Applying to college costs $75-$95 per application, and attending school can cost upwards of $20,000, which doesnt include the college-related expenses, like textbooks. Every semester, college students all over the world take to social media to cry about the cost, and this morning, so did Kanye West.

Do you agree with Kanye? We would love it if the prices for college textbooks dropped. For Kanyes sake, we hope the prices drop before its time for North and Saint West to go to college.
