> If a student can't say what they want to study, why they want to study it, and how they're going to pay for it

I get the first point and maybe the second one as well (although I personally had no idea why I wanted to study math right out of school) but thinking that a 18 year old should figure out how to pay for their education in their own is kinda crazy to me.

Maybe it’s a cultural difference but I think parents nowadays should be responsible to provide a little more than just childhood and early teenage years. You can’t just leave your kid on a street because he cannot justify his passion for something.
