How the heck am I suppose to pay for all this !?

I’m back. I am applying to cal state fullerton, san diego, san jose, sonoma, northridge, and long beach.

To answer some of your questions YES I actually have searched up each schools annual costs and stuff but sometimes the info they give you is out dated.

Do you really think that I am just now reasearching this kind of stuff? I’m not an idiot. Yes I have researched the EOP and I am applying to it and I am currently waiting for my last letter of reccomendation. I have filled out all the questions the EOP asked me and so now I am just waiting.

I have filled out the rest of my CSU app. My main counseler (she’s like the queen of councelers and she’s the bestbecause she ACTUALLY knows what she’s doing) is on maternity leave so I am going to fill out FAFSA in January when she returns. Also I would have no problem working and being a student. I work right now. Any tips on how I could balance school and work while prioitizing school?

Also I am trying to avoid taking out loans because like I said I don’t want to be paying those back for years and years.

My father makes 38,000 dollars a year if that info helps at all.

You’ll qualify for a Cal Grant and likely a Pell Grant.

You’d be better off getting into a UC, even if it’s a lower UC, since they give more money. Apply to Santa Cruz and Merced at least.
