Is it really that high?
I dont think financial aid should ne given to some subjects...some need to die out.
It depends on the institution, but at open enrollment universities and community colleges it can be really alarming.

I agree, but that's a different issue. At time of admission, schools have a very good idea of a student's odds of completing a degree. They wildly mislead low probability students about those odds and then encourage them to take on as much financial aid as possible.
