<p>Well, yes, it is not full ride in most cases. However, there is a limited number of scholarships available. I personally know a few people, who were fortunate(and smart) enough to get them. </p>
<p>The question was “Can I send my 21 year old to Europe and expect government aid for college from any of those countries?”</p>
<p>The answer is “Yes, government subsidizes tuition for non-citizens (not even permanent residents!) in many countries in Europe. It is free or very cheap in a lot of cases”.</p>
<p>Pell grants do not even cover full tuition in most cases. Most people (including me) have borrow and work to cover remaining tuition and living costs. For me personally, it is well worth it. </p>
<p>OP had a valid question that he needed help with. If you have nothing to add to guide him to the right answer, then don’t post. If you have a question about education in Europe, then create a separate topic. I am happy to answer it for you, but that does nothing to help answer OP’s question.</p>
