<p>I have a full need-based scholarship to Tufts University for my undergraduate - it's great and I'm super thankful for it! However, I recognize that if my dad gets a higher paying job in the next few years, my financial aid is going to go wayyy down. Also, my brother will be graduating from his graduate school in 2 years, so my EFC will undoubtedly increase once my parents stop paying for his tuition.</p>
<p>As a college student doing a work study on a regular basis, how can I start saving for either a) my junior/senior years at Tufts when my financial aid might not be so great, b) grad school, or b) entering the work force after graduating from Tufts?</p>
<p>I mean, I know I could just like put $100 aside every week into my bank account, but I'm looking more for like specific programs (like, is there a 401k-type thing I can do? anything that will return some heavy interest?).</p>
<p>TL;DR - how can I start intensely saving/investing for my future as a college freshman? </p>
<p>Thanks for any help :)</p>
