[DoubleJ]

[EddieV]

Scholarship, Parent, Loan

[cheerbee07]

i got the promise scholarship, and that pays for all tuition...
plus a 500 dollar scholarship...

my parents pay for the rest...for now, at least...
and before you ask, no, we're not rich

umm, down here it's around 14,000 a year, but half of it is the tuition.

[shoryuken]

[DoubleJ]

I pay for myself

[karmakiller]

How much is costs depends on where you go. I'll be paying for myself when I do go. It's going to suck... I don't want to have to pay off loans when I get out of school, so we'll see what happens.

[YaGurlSukedMe2SL...]

i had to f**k a few oldies

[Melissa]

fafsa paid for didly squat. The only federal aid I have is $1000 work-study.

We took out a lot of loans and what isn't in loans, my parents are paying for (right now). I plan to pay them back the second I make something of myself, lol.

[jaeman]

AFROTC scholarship, baby.

[shoryuken]

i thought fafsa givee u alot..

maybe i needa switch to diff college.. :(

[*yrrnotelekktric*]

^if your parents make too much money, the less money you get. ( for FAFSA, that is)

[MrStrife]

UPS. They pay for my classes (waived) as long as I pass my classes with at least a C+ (I think)

[EddieV]

at my college.. 1 class is $500... :(

LMAO! That's it? Mine's roughly $1500-$2500 per classes, plus $2000 for dorming fees.

[lkajsfklajskds]

out of curiosity, what college are you considering?

im not in college, but my sis is. i know that we had to pay only $6, 000. she's in brown university.

[shoryuken]

UPS. They pay for my classes (waived) as long as I pass my classes with at least a C+ (I think)

...? UPS as the mail delivery company that you talkin about rite..? how old r u..?

sulfur.. GOTDAM!! wtf u git da $$ da go da college foo../

silennight.. im goin da community.. 2 kool 4 skoolz..

[Tung]

Uh ever heard of talking to your school counselor, or actually going to the college you plan on attending for advice?

[Just_Dream]

wtf you go to community college and 1 class costs $500? That's NOT community college then. my friends who go to community college only pay $20/unit, where each class is like, 4 units. Therefore, each class would be $100. Some classes are 5+ units, so of course it would be more. NO WAY can you pay $500 for 1 class unless the class is like, 25 units.


FAFSA pays for my tuition, books, and gives me extra money. I get about $1100/3 quarters. Something like that. And I work at the library. Tung, still making $9/hr?

Uh ever heard of talking to your school counselor, or actually going to the college you plan on attending for advice?

Obviously he didn't since he came here to ask about everything.

Man, I'm such a bitch.

[shoryuken]

nah she 2 busyy chekin me out..

so she justt blah blah bout random shiet..

ima chek up diff collegee da c if dey cheapp r sumthang..

it say 1 credit is $500.. so 1 credit is 1 class i guess..

[Tung]

^ Yes still making $9 an hour lol. But i work during weekends, at my taxing job making $13/hr

btw for community colelge 1 class should be liek $50. not 500.

[shoryuken]

i dunno.. not wat i see last time..

i chek up dat shiet sumtimee diz week..

UNCLE sam LIL bietch.. trydaa robb me..!!

[Just_Dream]

it say 1 credit is $500.. so 1 credit is 1 class i guess..

WTF. 1 credit is NOT $500. Did you NOT read my post? Maybe you should go back and actually re-read READ what I just wrote. One credit/unit is not $500 at a community college. If you're taking a class that costs that much, then you're getting ripped off. And you're only checking it up this week?! For a guy who's so self-conscious about money, the smart thing to do would have been to consult with a counselor about it. I doubt that you did because they're hired for a reason, okay? They're supposed to help you. If she was "checking you out" and seemed like she liked you, she should have been more helpful.

You don't even seem like you're sure about any of this, so I highly down you even KNOW about credits.

1 credit can only equal one class depending on what class it is. Classes like english, math, science, history, etc. are usually 4 units.

[shoryuken]

or maybe 2 credit=1 class n dat cost $500..

i even see the chart 2.. 2 badd i dun got da chart.. or i take pic of da chart n put up here..

diz phucking city es phucking crazii da fo sho.. DEY CHEW U $$ like dog lickk my ballz..!!

[freeridefight]

Im looking forward to the promise scholarship because it pays for all of the tuition. Then my grades and such to get more scholarships. Then whatever comes along Ill deal with it. Any more ideas?

[shoryuken]

i talk to my counselor and she say that i need to take 2 classes and the 2 classes are both full..

she say i should take 2 electives.. while check up on the 2 classes when they gonna open up again..

is she right..? HELP HELPP MOFFOO!!!

[MissHygienic]

The simple fact that you are incapable of weighing your counselor's advice to random people on cB's advice, I have to question your ability to do anything at all in life.

[shoryuken]

now not the time damn it..

HELPP ME!!! what you ppl thinkk i gottaa dooo..

is shee rite or wat../

[MissHygienic]

No, she's not right. You should not take these classes because they're useless. Take fewer classes and do much less than you otherwise would. Scholarships love that.

[shoryuken]

but the class i needa take like math n english all full..

so she say why wait till like feb to sign up fo the class when i can take 2 elective that count as 6 credit..

dont elective helpp u with credit to transferr thoughh..

[ChangeofHeart]

^^ ive have seen many dumbasses but you are in the lead for the dumbass award!

[queen]

got a merit scholarship + money from usc savings plan, courtesy of grandaunts + out of pocket payment. i'm under CUNY, so it's not so bad.

however, i lost my scholarship and the grant about a year ago when i f**ked up my GPA, so now i pay $3000 out of pocket per sem -_-"

still not too bad though.

[shoryuken]

^^ ive have seen many dumbasses but you are in the lead for the dumbass award!

EYY alexx.. u likee nutz...

BIGG R smalll../

[littleswallow]

My parents pay for it.

[haylerbird]

I have no idea. I have a $2000 loan in my name.
I have another loan for the first college my parents practiacally forced me to go to.
My mom did the FAFSA through Sallie Mae for $28,500 and they aren't doing student loans anymore. That's in my dad's name.
Then I'm getting a $24,000 loan for next year put in my name.

You aren't going to last a semester in college if you keep writing the way you do.

I went to a University and writing composition is a requirement. You can't make it through unless you pass it.
Typing like that normally does transfer over to your writing of term papers.

[stephinika]

My parents started a university fund for me when I was born so theres plenty of money set aside to pay for my tuition.

[illriginal]

Work... I had to pay for everything except for books. I just simply downloaded all my books for free :P

[Teesa]

my parents for the most part and fafsa helped a TEENY bit.

[Tracy-14]

I dont go to collage, but when I do, the government will pay for it for me.

[weed]

me and my friends strip on the street and make that bread.

so we pay for college, like that.

[shoryuken]

good good.. tell mo ppl..

that crazi you ppl gotta pay with you $$

[rejakalu]

I'm only a freshman in high school. But I'm already thinking about it. I'm gonna try to get into Northwestern or Bethel so scholarshipsscholarshipsscholarships!


Don't use student loans. Those take forever to pay off.

[shoryuken]

EY homo.. i askk ppl in college... not ppl in high school... GTFO my thread...

u sexyy like me..? if u aint.. then GTFO my thread... no high school kid here... onlyy colleegg ppll..

[weed]

i thought fafsa givee u alot..

maybe i needa switch to diff college.. :(

Did you ever think maybe FAFSA wont give you shit because its impossible how someone in COLLEGE types and im sure articulates at a level way below average...

so basically, your a f**king retard who cant type and ergo cant get any kind of scholarship/funding.

BTW, im boycotting all of his threads, and i suggest everyone else does too. I dont think he really deserves the attention (good or bad).

[Just_Dream]

His posts may be ignorantly written and at times always irritating to read, but I'm going to assume that this does help other members or anyone viewing this thread who want to know how much people are getting or how to get it. It's just that the topic creator is going about it all wrong, that is all. If another topic was made by a member who is more coherent, I think that would be okay, but then again we aren't allowed to have duplicate topics.

[shoryuken]

[Just_Dream]

^ that sux.. get FAFSA.. dont pay jeez..

Obviously you don't understand how fafsa works. Your parents have to file taxes and bunch of other stuff, and then it's reported through fafsa. Either Yanlin's family make too much money to qualify for a big grant or she didn't file one because of the hassle. BTW Yanlin, did you file one? Since your parents are in HK, how would information be reported? You know what I mean?

[*paperplane*]

I didn't file FAFSA this year. While I probably lost my scholarship and my parents are going to kill me, I'm still not getting any financial aid, so whatever. My "financial aid" this year was about a $3000 loan that I didn't need, because it wouldn't really be helping anything.

Since your parents are in HK, how would information be reported? You know what I mean?

I can't file for FAFSA because I'm not American. And my school didn't offer me any financial aid because my dad had to send a bank report(?) giving them a general idea of how much money he has in the bank and how much he earns. They decided that my parents earn enough to pay for college, and so no financial aid for me.

I find it both good and bad. It's good because when I graduate, I won't be in debt. Well, the only debt that I will be in, is paying back my parents. But I won't have to pay off loans and such. The downside of my parents having to pay for college is the fact that they are unable to pay for college and buy an apartment at the same time. Therefore, they're still renting with the housing prices going up insanely in HK.

[Phil2thejay]

Yeahh I think I won't get financial aid due to my parents income
And also I plan to reduce the ammount of tuition by getting som scholarship money. I already got a few.

[shoryuken]

sumtimee.. me wannaa b blakk yo... FREE skool...

[misoshiru]

That's totally not true. Being black doesn't mean that you go to college for free.

[Glamourouz]

You have to do Fasfa to get any type of money from my school & the gov't sooo I use that & I have scholarships that cover book expenses & housing; summer school I pay out of pocket

[illriginal]

You guys do realize you can get scholarships for anything right? Skin color, freckles, eye color, height, athletic background, body type, etc... lol you guys can get a lot of your education paid off. Just apply for scholarships.

i think alot of us know that. but there's alot of lazy people who don't want to put the effort in it. i mean take 2-3 hours writing an essay for the specific scholarship you want, to pay off some of your tuition, and you're going to be lazy for that? you don't deserve to be in college with that thinking..

I hate motherf**kers who don't have ambition. All you have to do is sit there and boast about yourself and make yourself seem like a God to these campuses and bam you get partial/fully free education.

I think we should exterminate ambitionless human beings. (Yes serious)

That's so true, my brother just received 2 scholarships for being tall & another for his shoe size...I received $500 for having asthma & $1,000 for being a girl scout, & etc....People try fastweb.com, go to your local library or counselor for scholarship books, contact your prospective college's financial aid office (usually depending on your SAT scores colleges will be sending you info anyway), & last but not least just search the internet; some of you spend your lives on the internet anyway, why not use it to ensure your educational future for once. If you work hard you can get money; my dad's finding scholarships for my brother & I (even though I'm in college now, but I have grad school next & it's never too late to find money)...it's a lot better than loans :)

This needs to be merged with the other college thread. Even you should know better than this.

OMG! how old are you? Why do you type like a sped? anyway you either search for money or pay out of pocket (parents or your own); plain & simple...If you can't be responsible & do what you have to do to get what you need then you're not ready to go to college.

[shoryuken]

They pay with loans, savings, or insurance. There are a lot of ways to pay (for) your way through college.

And I'm sure you get this a lot, but why do you type like that?
