How to maintain a balance between financial and academic life?

Being full-time enrolled at an university while struggling with finances is hard for many students. Pursuing goals and dreams is not impossible but requires resiliency and much dedication. I believe this is possible but I find myself with tied hands.

Wong’s Answer

Hi Loannys. Balancing money and school is challenging, but it is achievable. You need to make a basic budget that lists what you must pay for each month, like rent, food, transportation, fees, and books. Then, compare these costs to the money you have coming in. If things don't add up, you may need to change small habits: cook at home more often, use campus resources, buy used textbooks, or take advantage of student discounts. These small choices can add up and ease some of the pressure.

Managing your time is also important. When money is tight, it may seem like you need to work more hours, but doing too much can hurt your grades and your health. Instead, plan your week so you have set times for classes, studying, work, and rest.

Another helpful step is to look for support offered by your university. Many students don't realize how many resources exist, like scholarships, grants, emergency funds, food pantries, and on-campus jobs. Meeting with a financial aid advisor can help you discover options you didn't know you had and relieve some of the stress.

Thank you for your question.
Below are my suggestions:
1. Explore the scholarship available and submit applications
2. Check any grants / loans offered by the government
3. Work on part jobs on the spare time given that it will not affect your learning. Make sure you have time on your assignment and revision
4. Discuss with your parents on the financial arrangements
Hope this helps! Good luck!
May Almighty God bless you!
