How to Save Money at Alabama

^^^Don’t join a sorority or fraternity. Get a job at the cafeteria to get free meals (don’t know if Bama offers this, but it worked for me in college). Don’t go home for Thanksgiving and Fall Break. (I think it stinks you have to leave dorms for spring break, as this adds expense for on campus kids). Don’t buy football tickets. Borrow books from previous semester kids, or maybe rent books. Take as many classes as possible under your scholarship so you can graduate in less than four years. Take as many classes during the summer at a local, inexpensive cc, if you’re lucky enough to have one in your town. When you’re on break for Christmas and Spring Break, work three jobs, so you can earn as much money as possible while you’re not going to school. Get a job as an RA, if that gives you free housing. Get a job on campus, for business hours, and get a job off campus for weekend hours. Get an off campus job that provides free food, like a pizza place or sandwich shop or restaurant. Dress simply, bring your wardrobe. Get free tshirts any chance you can.

Hope this helps!
