The fact of the matter, is that unless you are in the very upper echelons of wealth, there are always those who have it easier than you in most everything you do. Yeah, it hurts and it’s unfair. but there are those who are likely even worst off in the same endeavor. Changing the pool in which you are can make a big difference. If you are at a school with tuition that is $X, and there are schools that cost far less than that where you can get a degree, you should transfer if money is a huge problem. You cannot afford unpaid internships. My kids who could have afforded them did not take any, and worked instead because they needed the money immediately for things even more. You have to balance these things out. You need to focus on how to spend less, and get more money. You are not at the bottom of the barrel, so there are a lot of things you can do.
