Hi Giovanni!
Some things that might help with financing school include:
- Researching and apply for scholarships. Look online at free scholarship sites like Fastweb, College Board's Big Future. Also look locally at civic organizations such as Lion's Club and Rotary Club. Even some businesses offer scholarships. If you attend a church or place of worship, they often have scholarship funds.
- Work-study or part-time work. If you filed a FAFSA, you can get awarded work-study where you work on-campus, which goes towards your education costs. You could also work a part-time job. Make sure it is not too many hours and works with your school schedule.
- Many schools will let you setup a payment plan so you do not have to pay the whole semester up front.
Hope this helps! Wishing you much success!
