This is my last time asking because my points will be gone PLZZZZ.

Eduardo just graduated high school and wants to be a social worker. He found a private college a few hours away that has one of the best social work programs in the region. He got a scholarship but would still have to take out some small loans to complete the program. His parents want him to start at a local state college so that he can save money and help take care of his younger siblings. The state college does not offer a program in social work or the internship programs of the private college.

What long- and short-term consequences for himself and his family does Eduardo need to factor into his decision?

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

From the scenario described above, the main problem being faced by Eduardo is the financial demand required to both cater for the small loans required for his program and take care of his siblings. However, in the long term, Eduardo would really benefit from the private college scholarship which he was offered out of many. This will offer him a much easier route towards attaining his dream desire of becoming a social worker.

By opting for a local college, he might be able to escape the financial rigor associated with the private college and have more resources to cater for his siblings. However, he might have to forfeit his dreams or wait a little longer.
