WELP, looks like my scholarships and financial aid have run their course. As I am entering my last semester of my degree in Envrionmental Planning & Design, it seems I'm running about $4,000 short on tuition for the Fall Semester. Help a homegurl out? |
My recommendation would be to stop getting the loans, stop begging for help, and buck up and do this yourself. You will be much prouder if you do it yourself. This will teach you to work and not expect hand outs - which in the long run will make you so much more successful. It's what college and education were and are supposed to be.
This can be done. It's just a matter of how hard your willing to work at it. Get away from the hand outs and earn it yourself. I was able to earn my bachelor degree while working full time (40 hours) at my main job to live, then waited tables 4 or 5 nights per week to pay for tution/books, all while raising three kids.
My father did this as well. He earned his masters degree all while working @ Bell Helicopter, all while raising two kids with his wife who was a public school teacher...it's where I learned it. That's what taught me to never count on hand outs too. Hopefully my kids will follow in my footsteps too.
$4000 isnt that much by the way...if you pick up a wait tables job it's only 40 nights avg $100 each night. Can easliy be done in one or two months.
