I have to say college can be expensive but I don’t know if some kids are like me and are going to have issues paying for it. Yes, I have the 21st Cent. and FAFSA but the expenses are just the tuition but the extra added fees. Probably one expensive and lingering fee is housing/board and books. Depending where your college is you could just walk/drive but the college I am going to is two hours away. I have a job so I can save for books but the housing/board fee is a weight on my shoulders. I tried to find Grants/Scholarships but I don’t qualify for alot of them. If anyone has an idea on how to make this process a little bit easier I would be grateful. If you have question I can answer them too.
Did you fill out the NPC for the schools you are interested in?
If you can’t afford the full cost of attendance…and you need to or plan to reside at the college…then this college is NOT affordable for you.
The cost of attendance if you plan to love on or near campus INCLUDES living expenses.
If those are not affordable for you…is there a college close enough to wher you live that you COULD live at home?
