How did u pay for college?
Question:
Answer:
Grants, a few small scholarships, and student loans. Plus, I worked at Wal-Mart, which paid for my first two years.
Right now, I am paying for grad school with loans.
I was an escort and stripper. But now I have a bachelors in business management and a bachelors in pyschology
I worked in a topless bar in Windsor Canada while going to school at home in Detroit.
There's many ways to pay for college. I've used a combination of the following throughout college and grad school.
1.) Apply to as many scholarships as possible
2.) Financial aid.
3.) Grants.
4.) Work part time (you can also find a work-study position through financial aid).
Stafford sub loan, lots of work, small state grants, and scholarships.
Applied for student loans and have been deferring them for over 10 years. The stripper option was never an option, but in retrospect, I might have been better off financially had I considered it.
i didnt go to college, but a guy i used to know payed his way through college by scamming credit cards and stealing people's textbooks from the library and selling them to book stores.
Pretty crappy huh?
I borrowed from the Federal Government, did summer internships for major corporations, and gave guitar lessons.
I was very, very luck. My parent allowed me to live at home free during summer, provided I did the usual home maintenance tasks like paint and re-shingle the house, etc. No I am not kidding. I worked two full-time crappy jobs in factories all summer and had one-third of a tiny trust fund from my grandfather to squeak through until spring. The trust fund provided me with a whopping $370 a year. That, and Ramen Noodle helped me through my glorious five years of university life until I earned my degree.
Afterwards I started at the very bottom of a firm and now, after fifteen years of slaving away, I have almost made it to the same level my friend has. He didn't go to a university but decided to spend five years slaving away from the bottom up at the same firm where I am. He is a VP.
Ah, the benefits of a university education.
