How did you pay your way through college/university?
Question:
Answer:
I got a bunch in scholarships (National Merit scholar, state academic scholarship, high school scholarship), and I graduated a semester early (thus earning money for a semester instead of spending it - which just about paid for my previous semester, too). I didn't qualify for financial aid, but that would have been nice :-)
i didn't pay
Working in a gas station at night, going to school in the day...damned nearly killed me.
I work in a cafe to pay my bills
Work and grants!
Got a few grants and those darn loans. I also paid for some classes myself.
A couple scholarships not really worth so much after the school jacked tuition up a grand, some loans, a full-time factory job in the summers, part-time job during school, and help from the mom and dad.
