Many students dream of going to Harvard, Yale and other notable higher education institutions, but a recent poll found when it comes to free tuition, most students think a prestigious name isn't worth the price.

许多学生梦想进入哈佛、耶鲁和其他著名的高等教育机构，但最近的一项民意调查发现，当谈到免费学费时，大多数学生认为名牌不值这个价钱。

The choice between a prestigious school with a hefty price tag and a lesser-known name with a smaller financial burden is one many incoming college students faced. More than 40 million people in America have student loans and debt has become such a widespread problem that a game show was created to give people a chance to pay it off.

许多即将入学的大学生面临的一个问题是，是选择一所学费高昂的名校，还是一所名气较小、经济负担较轻的学校。在美国，有4000多万人背负着助学贷款和债务，这已经成为一个非常普遍的问题，以至于一个游戏节目应运而生，让人们有机会还清债务。

A March poll found graduates considered their loans were "worth it" to attend college. However, if given the choice between free tuition and a prestigious degree, a majority of college students say they would choose a no-name institution, according to a recent survey.

3月份的一项调查发现，毕业生认为他们的贷款“物有所值”。 然而，根据最近的一项调查，如果让他们在免费学费和名牌大学之间做出选择，大多数大学生表示他们会选择一所不知名的大学。

Released by College Pulse, a platform designed to gather student opinions, on Wednesday, the poll surveyed more than 8,000 students attending four-year colleges or universities across the country.

周三，旨在收集学生意见的平台College Pulse发布了这一调查，调查了全国8000多名四年制大学的学生。

Sixty-seven percent of students responded that they would choose free tuition at a "university nobody has heard of," compared to 26 percent who said they'd prefer to pay full tuition at a prestigious university. Seven percent responded that they were unsure which they would choose.

67%的学生回答说，他们会选择“没人听说过的大学”的免费学费，而26%的学生表示，他们更愿意在名牌大学全额学费。7%的人回答说他们不确定自己会选择哪一个。

Students with financial aid were more likely to prefer free tuition than students without financial aid, 71 percent to 55 percent.

有助学金的学生比没有助学金的学生更喜欢免学费，比例为71%至55%。
